Personal and financial information stolen from Stanford Medicine, University of Maryland Baltimore (UMB), and the University of California was leaked online by the Clop ransomware group.
The threat actors obtained the documents after hacking the universities Accellion File Transfer Appliance (FTA) software used to share and store sensitive information.
Data stolen in the attack targeting Stanford Medicine s Accellion server includes names, addresses, email addresses, Social Security numbers, and financial information, reported the Stanford Daily. We discovered the breach earlier this week when the hackers posted evidence that they had accessed a limited number of files in our system containing some personally identifiable information, UMB also told DataBreaches.net.

Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks started strong this year, setting new records and taking the extortion trend that started last August to the next level.
Internet security services company Akamai has already dealt with the largest known ransom DDoS (RDDoS) attack, which was also more complex than previously seen incidents of the same type.
Bigger, more complex RDDoS
Akamai says that in February they dealt with “three of the six biggest volumetric DDoS attacks” the company has ever recorded.
Two of these were the largest known ransom DDoS attacks and the most recent of them peaked at 800Gbps; it targeted a gambling company in Europe and was also the most complex Akamai saw since extortion DDoS started.
