Qantas says 'legal protections in place' as ScatteredLAPSUS$Hunters group threatens to release personal data - DataBreaches.Net
"The injunction Qantas obtained is limited in terms of who it covers. It does NOT cover all journalists and media. It only covers those who are under the jurisdiction of the NSW Supreme Court. Most journalists and media are not covered by the injunction, such as DataBreaches, and many may decide to discuss the data without publishing any of it, as a matter of ethics and believing that the publish should be informed without disclosing personally identifiable information."
"A cybercrime collective, Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters, has reportedly threatened to release stolen data from dozens of global firms linked to cloud software giant Salesforce - including Disney, Google, IKEA, Toyota and airlines Qantas, Air France and KLM - unless a ransom was paid. "Ensuring continued vigilance and providing ongoing support for our customers remain our top priorities following our cyber incident in early July," a Qantas spokesperson said."
The injunction obtained by Qantas is limited to parties under the NSW Supreme Court’s jurisdiction and does not cover most journalists or media outlets. Some outlets not covered may discuss the breach ethically without publishing personally identifiable information, while services and Australian media under the injunction are prohibited from publishing or using the stolen data. The threat actors behind the incident, identified as Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters, have threatened to release stolen data from dozens of firms tied to Salesforce. Qantas provides 24/7 support and identity protection and asserts the injunction gives legal protections, though criminals will not comply with court orders.
