Among the statements attributed to FulcrumSec are allegations of particularly poor security practices. The group claims to have identified administrative credentials reused across numerous systems, passwords stored in plaintext, #AWS access keys embedded directly within application code, and databases relying on credentials that had reportedly remained unchanged for years.

No, no one responded to me, but at least the article was removed. It's definitely the most sensible thing they could have done, given that it was based entirely on inaccurate data. Correcting it would have been pointless because they would have had to completely rewrite it.

@PogoWasRight I think the amount they wanted to ask for... it seems a little excessive and disproportionate to me... I think :)

UK: More than one year later, HCRG is first notifying patients of a ransomware attack:

This is the one where they ran to the High Court in the UK to get injunctions that their lawyers sent to @amvinfe and me.

It seems they are first notifying patients now -- 16 months after the attack.

Hi, I read your article on HCRG and I think you may be mistaken about some of your writing.
In one passage, you write, "The entity directly affected by the attack is CRG Medical Services, a subsidiary of HCRG that provides forensic medical services to police forces."
Can I ask where you got this information? Has it been verified by you?
If it has been verified, can you provide evidence?
I think, I'm sure, you're mistaken ;)

Really a great article my friend, really great 👍

NEW by me:

One threat actor demanded $50 million from Novo Nordisk. Another one demanded $25 million. Neither got paid.

Two different groups tried to extort Novo Nordisk at around the same time. Novo Nordisk strung them both along, and then went dark.

Data leaks followed.

The responses provided to SuspectFile paint a picture of a group that claims to have grown gradually and demonstrated a consistent ability to adapt. One of the most interesting aspects concerns the shift from extortion based solely on stolen data to the adoption of encryption.
