US and UK cybersecurity officials have issued a warning that a Russian cyber-extortion gang’s hack of a popular file-transfer program used by corporations could have global implications. The BBC, British Airways, and Nova Scotia’s government are among the initial victims of the data theft. Brett Callow, an analyst at cybersecurity firm Emsisoft, said this could be one of the most significant breaches in recent years. The Cl0p ransomware syndicate has given its victims until 14 June to negotiate a ransom or risk having stolen data dumped online. The MOVEit program is widely used by businesses to securely share files.
