National Hazard Agency, a sub-group of the LockBit ransomware gang, posted the name of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world’s largest chip manufacturer, on LockBit’s dark web leak site on June 29, 2023.
The threat actor has demanded TSMC pay a $70m ransom to prevent them from leaking the data they allegedly possess. The victim was initially given seven days to respond, but the deadline has since been extended to August 6.
“In the case of payment refusal, also will be published points of entry and passwords and logins company. All available data will be published [sic],” LockBit wrote.
