Giant Latin American Software Company TOTVS Hit by Cyberattack

November 28, 2024

INCIDENT

“TOTVS was the target of a cyberattack and reacted quickly. The attack was carried out by the BlackByte group, known for its double extortion tactic. Although TOTVS has indicated that encryption is under control, there is evidence that *data exfiltration* was significant, with samples already circulating on the dark web.

This suggests that confidential information may have been compromised, increasing the challenge of containing the impact of the attack.
