The company that operates a fiber optic network that supports statewide and local government entities across North Dakota was a victim of a recent ransomware attack.
The attack included some of the firm’s files being published on a website that attempts to shame victims into paying.
A zip file available on the Maze website that contained invoices, payroll information, vendor lists, password-reset requests, and customer profiles had been exposed.
The breach also included at least one photograph of Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury.
