INC ransomware gang claims attack on Florida Memorial University


Learn More

Florida Memorial University (FMU), has apparently been attacked by INC Ransom ransomware group. INC Ransom has uploaded what they refer to as a 'proof pack' on their website. This pack appears to contain:

  • scans of passports,
  • Social Security numbers,
  • contractual documents.

The specifics of the compromised data in this incident are not yet clear, as the university has not issued an official statement on the breach. Given the lack of official confirmation from FMU regarding the attack, students and staff should take mitigating steps like updating passwords, monitoring account activities for any anomalies, and being cautious of potential phishing attempts that may exploit the situation.

Additionally, those potentially affected should keep a close watch on their credit reports and consider taking measures such as fraud alerts or credit freezes to further secure their financial identity.
