RICHMOND, B.C. — Retailer London Drugs says cybercriminals who stole files from its corporate head office last month have released some of the data after it refused to pay a ransom.
He said that if the data proved to be from London Drugs, the move suggested LockBit had"given up" on being able to monetize the attack. The release also showed the hackers' future victims what could happen if they refused to pay up, Callow said. The company said there was no indication any patient or customer databases were compromised in the breach that forced London Drugs to shut down its stores across Western Canada after it was discovered on April 28.
He said it was possible that leaked data could be downloaded and used for identity-related fraud, but there was no evidence this was happening routinely with such releases. At the time, a statement from the agency said it had infiltrated LockBit's network and taken control of its services,"compromising their entire criminal enterprise."
It said the man would be subject to a series of asset freezes and travel bans, and U.S. authorities were offering a reward of up to US$10 million for information leading to his arrest and conviction.
