Pennsylvania AG Data Breach After INC Ransom Attack

🔒 The Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General (OAG) confirmed that files containing personal and medical information were accessed during an August 9 ransomware attack and that the office refused to pay the ransom. The incident encrypted systems and disrupted the OAG website, employee email accounts, and landline phones. Researcher Kevin Beaumont identified public-facing Citrix NetScaler appliances vulnerable to CVE-2025-5777 (Citrix Bleed 2) that may have been exploited. The threat actor INC Ransom later claimed responsibility and posted about 5.7TB of alleged stolen data.
