B&G Foods attacked by Daixin Team; files leaked

“B&G Foods describes itself as a “multibillion dollar company with more than 50 brands and one purpose: Delicious food from our family to yours.” Some of the firm’s brands are Crisco, Green Giant, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Cream of Wheat, and Vermont Maid Syrup. But a recent cyberattack by Daixin Team has allegedly resulted in the encryption of an estimated 1,000 hosts and the exfiltration of files that have now been leaked on Daixin’s dark web leak site. “

“A spokesperson for Daixin informs DataBreaches that B&G was locked on February 4. On inquiry, Daixin’s spokesperson wasn’t sure whether they had encrypted all backups and stated that the firm could have recovered. When asked how they had contacted B&G and whether B&G ever responded, Daixin told DataBreaches that they had left notes on the local network and sent several communications, but B&G did not appear in the chat to respond or try to negotiate. “

“Inspecting the leaked files confirmed one of Daixin’s statements to DataBreaches that this wasn’t one of their more significant attacks. The leaked data does include internal company documents. However, the entire dump does not appear to have more serious or confidential corporate files, personnel files, or contractor files. “

“Some files, however, included sensitive employee data, as the two files below illustrate. The first is a portion of a letter sent to two healthcare professionals asking for their assessment as to whether a named employee was fit for work in light of their job duties, medical condition (severe sleep apnea), and prescribed medication. “
