Insomniac Games hit by ransomware attack. Wolverine pics leaked as well as Spiderman info.

[solidsnake_1]

The Rhysida gang is saying Insomniac has seven days before the full data set is published but is also currently running an auction on the data, with a starting price of 50 bitcoins, or just over US$2 million.


“With just 7 days on the clock, seize the opportunity to bid on exclusive, unique, and impressive data,” Rhysida said on its leak site.


“Open your wallets and be ready to buy exclusive data. We sell only to one hand, no reselling, you will be the only owner!”

In fact, some details regarding the upcoming Wolverine game may have been included in the hack, as an annotated screenshot from the game appears to be included in the gang’s proof-of-hack data, along with character art that seems to relate to other Marvel characters that may be featured in the game.


Also included are passport scans that appear to belong to Insomniac employees, including at least one ex-employee who now works at Disney after being laid off by the developer two months ago. Another personal document appears to belong to the voice actor who voiced Peter Parker – aka Spider-Man – in the latest release of the game, Yuri Lowenthal.


Other documents featured as proof-of-hack material include internal emails and signed, confidential documents.

It's interesting that Sony is getting hit pretty hard and it's the only major publisher getting hit this hard with hacks. No tencent microsoft or nintendo.

not really. Capcom was hit in 2021 so was EA, nvidia 2022, 2k this pass summer, Bandai this year also, Roblox I think this year also and several reports of attempted breach’s by other studios. Also Microsoft has suffered more major widespread breaches of any company but I guess the hackers don’t care enough to look at Xbox files. Nintendo is garbage and is probably making games on some ancient computers that’s too much trouble for hackers to bother with. Tencent would be a bad idea for anyone to mess with especially anyone in Asia where ccp has a strong reach. The ccp has a security interest in tencent and anyone messing with that would find themselves dead of a mysterious suicide.

How is this good? Ransomware attacks essentially block the person's/companies' access to their files. What this implies is that Insomniac, as we speak, have parts of their business that are stuck and cannot run any meaningful work.

MS is trying to get money out of them in any way they can.

Gamers are among the most selfish people man. Most of them don’t give a damn about no one, but their own entertainment.

The camera shot looks very TLOU/GOW.

Nah. Hackers don’t go after Nintendo because Nintendo doesn’t play around with that shit. Nintendo goes heavy hard at people who dare.

Green Rat made a tread on trashera.

Xbox fanboys have definitely gotten worse this year.

Edit: Read the thread and so far it's just people shitting on the hackers and mentioning that the passport thing is pretty standard for a lot of companies. Not yet the circlejerk I was expecting form that place.

 

[John Elden Ring]

Reportedly from the ransomware attack...

 

[Deleted member 223]

What is a U.S passport photo doing there?

The Last of Wolverine

I believe that is an employee passport...it's a huge mix of data from the hack.

Weird how sony always gets hacked after some horrible xbox news. First it was after xbox leaked all their court documents, now its when PS5 pro rumors start and the day before (Presumably) the worst NPD blowout since the PS2 days.
