Summary:

In October 2023 Corsica Ferries, a ferry company, fell victim to a cyberattack by the ALPHV group, resulting in the theft of 101 GB of confidential data at the end of October. The hackers, known for ransomware attacks, made the stolen information available on the dark web after the company refused to cooperate with their demands.
