Clop Ransomware Attack on Honeywell

Summary:

In late May 2023, Honeywell International, an American advanced technology conglomerate, experienced a cybersecurity incident where sensitive company data was compromised due to the MOVEit attack spree by the Cl0p ransomware gang. The breach affected a single MOVEit server, and Honeywell confirmed the incident in an official statement on June 16th. Despite the breach, Honeywell assured that there was no material impact on business operations, and all systems remained fully operational. The company's cybersecurity defenses limited the impact to the affected server, and IT teams have since patched and upgraded the MOVEit app. The MOVEit Transfer system, developed by Progress, has been exploited by Cl0p, affecting around 3,000 deployments and at least 150 victims, including major companies and US federal agencies.
