Ransomware Attack May Have Leaked 30,000 Personal Data Records at New Japan Inspection Association, a Trade Cargo Inspection Organization

The Japan Inspection Association said a ransomware attack likely exposed about 30,000 personal records.

Attackers appear to have exploited a vulnerability in network equipment to break in and move deeper inside the network.

Server data was encrypted, and there is concern that files were searched and exfiltrated internally.

The affected data may include information on business contacts, employees, former employees, and job candidates.
