World Leaks, formerly Hunters International, is back with a bang, claiming to have leaked 1.3 TB of data from Dell Technologies.

Hot Take:

Oh, the irony! Dell Technologies, the titan of tech, allegedly gets its digital drawers rifled through by World Leaks—an organization that sounds like it could use a bit of brand loyalty. In a plot twist worthy of a soap opera, a group formerly known as Hunters International has rebranded and dropped the ransomware bit, opting instead for the good old-fashioned “give us money or we spill your secrets” approach. Forget firewalls; maybe Dell would have better luck with a moat and some alligators.

Key Points:

  • World Leaks, formerly Hunters International, claims to have leaked 1.3 TB of Dell Technologies’ data.
  • The leaked data reportedly includes over 416,000 files from Dell’s global network.
  • World Leaks has shifted from ransomware to solely focusing on data theft and extortion.
  • Dell has faced previous breaches, with hackers claiming to have accessed millions of customer and employee records.
  • The authenticity of the breach remains unverified by Dell as of now.
