Colliers

Colliers International Group, a Toronto-based commercial real estate services firm, suffered a cyber attack after IT World Canada confronted the company about a listing on the dark web by the Netflix ransomware gang – a listing which suggests that the firm was hit by the gang and that Colliers’ files were copied.

Colliers conducted an investigation into the attack with the support of cybersecurity experts to limit the attack’s effect.
