\nLockBit claims ransomware attack on pharma giant Granules India<\/br>

The Russia-linked ransomware group LockBit has claimed responsibility for a cyberattack on Indian pharmaceutical giant Granules India, and published portions of the data it allegedly stole.<\/p>\n

LockBit\u2019s dark web leak site listed Granules India as one of its latest victims on Wednesday, according to a listing seen by TechCrunch.<\/p>\n

Granules India has yet to confirm the ransomware attack. However, the company last month disclosed to Indian stock exchanges a cybersecurity incident. At the time, it stated that the affected IT assets were isolated.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe company is investigating the matter with utmost priority. The appropriate containment and remediation actions are being taken in a controlled manner to address the incident,\u201d the company had said in its stock exchange filing<\/a> (PDF) on May 25.<\/p>\n

Granules India did not respond to a request for comment. TechCrunch also informed the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) about the incident prior to publication.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1984, Granules India is one of the largest Indian pharmaceutical manufacturers in India. The Hyderabad-based company produces many common off-patent drugs, such as paracetamol, ibuprofen and metformin. The company also has more than 300 customers in over 80 countries around the world, per the details available on its website.<\/p>\n

Last month, Granules India reported a 7.8% rise in quarterly profit to $14.6 million\u00a0for the quarter ended March 31. The company\u2019s shares closed slightly lower at $3.50 on Thursday from the previous share price of $3.48.<\/p>\n

LockBit emerged as the most deployed ransomware variant worldwide in 2022 and 2023 so far, according to a recently released joint advisory<\/a> by the U.S. federal cybersecurity agency CISA and its international counterparts in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. The ransomware gang was first spotted on Russian language-based cybercrime forums in January 2020.<\/p>\n

In the last few months, the ransomware gang claimed attacks on various prominent tech companies, including IT services company Accenture<\/a> and tech manufacturer Foxconn<\/a>\u00a0as well as the U.K. health service vendor Advanced<\/a> and British postal service Royal Mail<\/a>. The state of California\u2019s finance department<\/a>, the Los Angeles housing authority<\/a> and financial software firm Ion Group<\/a> are also among the ransomware group\u2019s victims.<\/p>\n

LockBit threat actors have extorted approximately $91 million in ransoms through about 1,700 attacks targeting U.S. victims since 2020, the recent advisory U.S. and international joint advisory said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
