Have hackers stolen data sensitive to the naval group giant? A member of a Dark Web forum has been proclaimed in any case since Wednesday, as revealed by the gallery. He ensures holding a host of data, sometimes sensitive, covering the period 2019-2024 and asks to be contacted directly by the naval construction giant by Saturday. Otherwise, he would publish all of these online documents.
First data posted online
To credible his allegations (still unverifiable), the hacker published extracts, according to him, on Wednesday of this data. According to Numerama, this first batch of 13 GB has videos from a 2003 underwater surveillance system. Nothing decisive at this stage, in terms of security, but enough to leave doubt.
A complaint filed
Questioned by Le Parisien, Naval Group has since confirmed “to be the target of a reputational attack, characterized by the claim of an act of cybermalvence”. “Technical investigations” have been launched, with the support of a “team of cybersecurity experts”, all in collaboration with state services. Friday evening, the group assured that “no intrusion” had been detected in its computer system. A complaint has been filed.
