Embraer issued a press\r\nrelease last week, admitting to a security breach, but did not confirm that the incident involved neither\r\nransomware nor data theft.\r\nThe airplane maker said the attackers had \"access to only a single environment,\" and that the incident caused only\r\na temporary impact on \"some of its operations.\"\r\nAn Embraer spokesperson did not return a request for comment sent by ZDNet today, following the leak.\r\nRansomExx gets a \"leak site\"\r\nEmbraer is also one of three companies that had their data leaked over the weekend on the RansomExx leak site,\r\nlaunched on Saturday.\r\nThe RansomExx gang now joins a long list of ransomware gangs that run leak sites.\r\nRansomware gangs use leak sites as a way to put pressure on victims. During negotiations, companies are told that\r\nif they don't pay the attacker's desired ransom demand, the attackers will leak data online as a form of punishment,\r\nso it can be downloaded by competitors, or that companies face regulatory punishments in their countries.\r\nSecurity\r\nEditorial standards\r\nSource: https://www.zdnet.com/article/hackers-leak-data-from-embraer-worlds-third-largest-airplane-maker/\r\nhttps://www.zdnet.com/article/hackers-leak-data-from-embraer-worlds-third-largest-airplane-maker/\r\nPage 2 of 2",
