The Lapsus$ hacking group first made headlines when it waged a ransomware attack against the Brazilian Ministry of Health<\/a> in December 2021, compromising the COVID-19 vaccination data of millions within the country. <\/p>\n

Since then, it has targeted a number of high-profile technology companies, stealing data from Nvidia<\/a>, Samsung<\/a>, Microsoft<\/a>, and Vodafone<\/a>. Lapsus$ also managed to disrupt some of Ubisoft\u2019s services<\/a> and also gained access to an Okta<\/a> contractor\u2019s laptop, putting the data of thousands of companies that use the service at risk. It\u2019s also suspected to be behind<\/a> last year\u2019s attack on EA Games<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the attack on Okta, a report<\/a> pinned an England-based teenager<\/a> as the mastermind behind the hacking group and said another teen member may reside in Brazil. One member of the group is reportedly so skilled at hacking that researchers thought their work was automated. On March 24th, the London police made seven arrests<\/a> in connection with the Lapsus$ group, all of whom are teenagers.<\/p>\n

Here are all the latest updates on the Lapsus$ group.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
