Tata Technologies Targeted: Hunters International Claims 1.4 TB Data Heist

Hunters International, the ransomware group, has allegedly hacked Tata Technologies, claiming the theft of 1.4 TB of data. They are now threatening to leak this treasure trove of digital mischief. Tata, a subsidiary of Tata Motors, has scrambled to fix the issue, but let’s hope their data isn’t leaking faster than a colander in a rainstorm.

Hot Take:

Looks like Hunters International is taking a page out of their own ransom-note book and rebranding themselves as a Robin Hood of the cyber world—minus the whole giving-back-to-the-poor bit. It seems they’re more about ‘steal from the rich, keep for themselves, and leak on Tor.’ Tata Technologies is just their latest victim in this cyber caper, and with 1.4 TB of data at stake, it sounds like they’ve had a busy January. Who knew cybercrime could be such a weighty business!

Key Points:

  • Hunters International claims to have stolen 1.4 TB of data from Tata Technologies.
  • The breach affected Tata Technologies’ IT assets, but client services remained operational.
  • The alleged stolen data includes contracts, financial documents, and employee PII.
  • Hunters International is suspected to be a rebrand of the infamous Hive ransomware group.
  • Tata Technologies has restored its systems and is investigating the incident with authorities.
