As Logitech confirms breach, here’s what you need to know about the Clop gang hack attack — customers and consumers likely impacted by data theft.
, cybercrime groups continue to have success in their attacks against some of the biggest names in the technology sector. We’ve seen two zero-days used in a single attack, as confirmed byalready this month.
Now you can add a hack attack by one of the most notorious of ransomware and extortion gangs,, which has led to a confirmed data breach impacting mouse and keyboard giants, Logitech. Here’s what we know so far. I have always been a fan of Logitech mice, I mean, who isn’t? But I’m not a fan of reading the words “Logitech International S.A. recently experienced a cybersecurity incident relating to the exfiltration of data,” I mean, who would be? Nobody wants to learn of a data breach that could impact them, whether as a user of Logitech products, a business partner, or an employee. Yet here we are, following the filing of a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that confirmed the data breach, as reported by It is not thought that the hacking incident affected Logitech products or business operations, but targeted a third-party software platform in order to access the Logitech data. The hacker, Logitech said, “used a zero-day vulnerability” that has been patched ”following its release by the software platform vendor.”this “likely included limited information about employees and consumers and data relating to customers and suppliers’ which is not particularly comforting, as this implies it is not known exactly what data was accessed. In a similar vein, while Logitech has said that it “does not believe any sensitive personal information, such as national ID numbers or credit card information, was housed in the impacted IT system,” I would be much happier if that were stated as a fact rather than a belief. The Clop ransomware group announced the attack on Logitech a week ago, publishing details on its data-leak site, claiming that more than 1 TB of data had been stolen. The zero-day vulnerability is most likely an Oracle-related one, as Clop was known to be employing this during similar hack attacks in the summer.
