Kimchuk

The electronics manufacturer company Kimchuk had been a victim of the DopplePaymer ransomware attack.

The attackers were demanding about $10 million in Crypto in exchange to free up the data they got after hitting file-encrypting malware in the database.

The hackers published a part of the stolen Kimchuk’s data on the dark web as the company didn't pay the ransom.
