In the cyber attack on Continental, the hackers apparently not only captured a large amount of sensitive data, but also large amounts of it. This emerges from a list that the hackers have now published on their blog on the dark web.
The text file is 7.6 billion characters long, almost eight gigabytes in size and lists the storage paths of 55 million files. According to the hackers, these all come from Conti servers.
The list includes, among other things, budget, investment and strategy plans, HR documents and confidential documents and communications from the executive and supervisory boards. Correspondence from the head of the supervisory board, Wolfgang Reitzle, is apparently also affected.
According to the list, the hackers have also captured data related to customers, including car manufacturers Volkswagen, Mercedes and BMW. In the case of VW, for example, it is about specifications for software, control units as well as contract conditions and specifications.
