Hoboken NJ cyberattack by 3AM was “massive”

Posted on December 8, 2024 by Dissent

Ron Zeitlinger of  The Jersey Journal reports:

Social security numbers, driver’s licenses, payroll, health and other personal information of Hoboken workers and residents ― including dozens who applied for rental assistance during the pandemic ― was among the data stolen in the cyberattack last month, The Jersey Journal has confirmed.

The Russia-linked ransomware group ThreeAM (also known as 3AM) has claimed responsibility for the attack, two cybersecurity experts told the Journal, although the group has not made its demands from the city public.

Read more at NJ.com. The news story provides details of what data was acquired in the November 27 incident, based on a file.text that 3AM posted on their leak site with the listing.

3AM’s leak site could not be reached this morning, but it is not unusual for that to happen at times. The Hoboken listing was last updated on the threat actors’ site on December 4.
