Toshiba subsidiary confirms ransomware attack, as reports suggest possible DarkSide involvement.
European units of Japanese tech giant Toshiba are investigating a security incident in which scammers may have used a similar hacking tool to the malware used against IT systems at Colonial Pipeline.
The European subsidiaries of Toshiba Tec Group said Friday that a cyberattack from a criminal gang had prompted the company to disconnect network connections between Japan and Europe to stop the spread of the malware. In a statement, Toshiba Tec Group, a unit of the multinational conglomerate which makes printers and other technologies, said the firm had “not yet confirmed a fact that customer related information was leaked externally,” though it suggested a criminal gang is responsible.
