Treasures of the largest yacht broker turned up at a pirate auction.
The hacker group Rhysida claimed responsibility for a cyberattack on MarineMax, one of the world's leaders in the sale of recreational vessels and superyachts.
The criminals published some of the stolen data on their website. Fragments of files are combined into collages, and it is quite difficult to determine their content. But, apparently, the bulk of the leaked information concerns financial documents.
Rhysida Classics announced a seven-day auction on its website. If there is a buyer who offers a fair amount, MarineMax data will be transferred to them under exclusive rights. Otherwise, all files will be publicly available.
The initial bid of the auction is 15 bitcoins, which is equivalent to $ 1.007 million.
The message on the attackers 'website reads: "You have only 7 days, do not miss the unique chance to bet on exclusive, unique and impressive data."
"Open your wallets and be ready to purchase unique information. We sell it exclusively in one hand, without resale rights, you will become the sole owner!"
MarineMax, which specializes in the sale of new and used vessels, as well as yacht brokerage services, attracts clients from highly profitable companies and the elite. Given that the stolen data may contain personal information and financial information, their fall into the hands of intruders will lead to disastrous consequences, including phishing attacks and the largest fraudulent scams.
Interestingly, in a report to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, MarineMax claimed that no valuable information was stored in the attacked infrastructure.
Rhysida is the same group that attacked the British Library last year, from which the institution has not yet recovered. This was the largest "extraction" of hackers to date. The CISA agency has already released an extensive report on the group's activities, which describes its typical hacking methods, including phishing tricks, hacking accounts and exploiting vulnerabilities, for example, Zerologon.
CISA also notes similarities between the actions of Rhysida and the activities of the Vice Society group specializing in extortion.
