Texas Bar’s Legal Jargon Leaked: Ransomware Hits Lone Star Lawyers
The State Bar of Texas is in a legal pickle after the INC ransomware gang claimed it breached their system, leaking attorney data. The bar, overseeing over 100,000 lawyers, is now offering credit monitoring to affected members. Who knew the biggest courtroom drama would involve hackers instead of litigators?
Hot Take:
Looks like the State Bar of Texas just got served a subpoena by the INC ransomware gang, and this one’s not going away with a simple “no comment.” And who knew that “bar” would one day refer to trying to keep hackers out? Better call Saul—no, really.
Key Points:
- The State Bar of Texas, a massive association with over 100,000 attorneys, got hacked, oops.
- INC ransomware gang claimed responsibility and leaked some samples for good measure.
- The breach ran from January 28 to February 9, 2025, but was only discovered three days later.
- Stolen data includes full names and sensitive information, though exactly what remains a mystery.
- Those affected get free credit monitoring, because who doesn’t love a little identity crisis?
