“A ransomware group known for hundreds of breaches, including attempts to extort governments for money, has claimed responsibility for the early September cyber attack at the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office.“
“The Qilin group in a dark web post Saturday said it was behind the Sept. 4 attack, according to a screenshot viewed by a reporter. The post didn't say how much or what kind of information the group managed to hack from the 800-person agency, and neither has Sheriff Susan Hutson. “
“But the group leaked four documents suggesting at least some of OPSO's administrative and financial records were compromised. One was a March 2025 bank statement; another a January 2025 internal report on contraband incidents. “
