London Drugs says hackers have started releasing some stolen data, after the company refused to pay a $25 million ransom.
From CTV News:
"Retailer London Drugs says cybercriminals who stole files from its corporate head office last month have released some of the data after it refused to pay a ransom.
The Richmond, B.C.-based company says in a statement the files may contain "some employee information," calling it a "deeply distressing" situation.
London Drugs was responding to a social media post by Brett Callow, a B.C.-based threat analyst with anti-virus software company Emsisoft, which said the hacking group LockBit had released what it claimed was the company's data.
Lockbit has been described by British authorities as "the world's most harmful cybercrime group."
Welp!! Hopefully no one gets harmed by this...

Not everyone can do everything. But everyone can do something. Because #DemocracyIsSomethingYouDo...
Write to your MP, MPP, MLA, MNA, Senator, or preferred local media outlet to tell them you expect them to dig deep into the Doug Ford corruption story as well as indicted-in-the-USA-for-trying-to-steal-an-election Mike Roman's links to Stephen Harper and Andrew Scheer. And tell them you want them to do more to house the homeless.
If you live in Alberta, get involved in canvassing for the AB NDP Leadership race. If you are in Saskatchewan or New Brunswick, why not look into working at a polling station this coming election?
With the current strain on our health care professionals, do the right neighbourly thing to keep our hospitals unclogged and be sure to get your summer COVID boosters. Also check whether you are up to do on your MMR vaccinations.
Finally, support your fellow Canadians by donating to the Red Cross Wildfire Response.
