RansomHouse claim to have stolen data from ADATA, ADATA states the stolen data from 2021 breach

On Tuesday 4th of October 2022, the RansomHouse gang apparently added ADATA files to their data leak site where they claim to have stolen 1TB worth of documents in a 2022 cyberattack. However, ADATA has stated that they haven’t suffered a recent cyberattack and they also stated that the leaked files are from a May 2021 RagnarLocker ransomware attack when 1.5 TB of data was stolen.

“By several technical ways check, we are confident what Ransomhouse claimed are fake and those data has been stolen by Ragnar Locker in 2021,” – A spokesperson for ADATA.

Comparing the timestamps on the data shared by RansomHouse with the data leaked by Ragnar Locker in June 2021, both sets of stolen data have similar timestamps, with no file being newer than May 2021. ADATA further added that RansomHouse had not left any ransom notes on their servers to prove that an attack occurred. Although RansomHouse continues to claim they breached ADATA recently in a data theft attack and that they had negotiated with the company on the stolen data.
