Ryomo Systems: ransomware attack
On 12 August, an attacker misused a VPN device account to get into the internal network of Ryomo Systems, an IT company in Gunma, and the anomaly was detected early on 14 August. It was a ransomware attack; some servers showed traces of access, and personal data of clients' customers, employees and others may have leaked. Through old work files left on its internal network, about 124,000 customers of Daito Gas, 3,789 student accounts of Isesaki City and about 6,800 customers of Nabari Kintetsu Gas were among those affected.
