Avaddon starts dumping data from Malta’s Nationalist Party

Posted on April 19, 2021 by Dissent

Marco A. De Felice reports:

The Avaddon ransomware group has managed to enter the IT structure of the Partit Nazzjonalista ( Nationalist Party of Malta).

Last night the cybercriminals , after the non-payment of the ransom, decided to publish a first part of the exfiltrated documents on their website.

Avaddon publishes a note claiming to be in possession of the party’s financial data, employee personal documents and private data of its clients.

Updated April 25:  The leader of the Nationalist Party told Times of Malta that  the party does not negotiate with hackers and would not be paying any money to stop its information from being leaked.
