Unimicron confirms ransomware attack with the Taiwanese Stock Exchange
It does not expect significant financial impact
Sarcoma took responsibility, claiming they stole sensitive data, as well
Unimicron, a global manufacturing giant specializing in printed circuit boards (PCBs), has confirmed suffering a ransomware attack, filing a new report with the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE), revealing it was hit on January 30.
As soon as the attack was spotted, the company says it brought in a third-party cyber forensic team to analyze and defend the IT infrastructure, adding the anticipated possible loss or impact was “limited”. It does not expect to receive any compensation from its insurance company for the attack, either.
