The Lapsus$ ransomware group leaked the credentials of Nvidia employees and said it would soon release 1 terabyte of stolen data, according to screenshots posted on Twitter by cybersecurity monitoring group DarkTracer. According to a Twitter screenshot, the Lapsus ransomware gang also claimed to have “full chip, graphics and computer chipset files for all of Nvidia’s latest GPUs” and threatened to leak the company’s Lite Hash Rate (LHR) technology. In a post seen by The Verge, the Lapsus$ hacker group claims that the hardware folder alone is 250GB in size and contains information about “all the latest Nvidia GPUs,” including the mysterious RTX 3090 Ti.
According to screenshots circulating on social media, the Lapsus$ ransomware gang that claimed responsibility for the attack is now threatening to leak files related to the chipmaker’s Nvidia GPUs if the company doesn’t comply with its request. The hacker group Lapsus$ claimed responsibility for the attack and asked Nvidia to make their drivers public if they don’t want any data leaked. Lapsus$ would ask Nvidia to provide open-source Nvidia GPU drivers for Windows, macOS, and Linux devices by Friday, March 4th if they don’t want all the stolen information about its latest GPUs, including the RTX 3090Ti, leaked online.
Hackers are now threatening to expose the chip giant’s trade secrets, including schematics, source code, and information about Nvidia’s latest graphics chips, including the yet-to-be-announced RTX 3090 Ti unless Nvidia complies with the groups’ increasingly bizarre demands. . An spokesperson told ZDNet that hackers have begun leaking 1TB of data online, publicly sharing sensitive information about microchip maker and employee credentials.
The company has released more details about an apparent ransomware attack on its network, admitting that internal data was stolen. A ransomware group that claims to have taken 1TB of data from chip giant Nvidia has taken away chip giant Nvidia today, threatening to reveal the company’s “best conservative” if it doesn’t comply with the demands of an increasingly bizarre gang secret”. The ransomware group that claimed to be behind Nvidia’s cyberattack in recent weeks has released some of the data it stole from the company.
In addition, the group also said that US chip company NVIDIA hacked and encrypted the leaked information with ransomware, adding that it eventually restored the files from a backup. After the breakup, the hacker organization claimed that Nvidia had scolded the hackers, but these claims had not been confirmed at the time of the complaint.
