The leak comes after failed negotiations with the executives of Whirlpool.
The Nefilim ransomware operators published the first batch of data that includes documents related to employee benefits, accommodation requests, medical information requests, and other info.
“This leak comes after long negotiations and unwillingness of executives of Whirlpool Corporation to uphold the interests of their stakeholders. Whirpools cybersecurity is very fragile, which allowed us to breach their network for the second time after they stopped the negotiations.” states the message published by the ransomware gang on their leak site.
The Nefilim ransomware gang leaked a text file and a 7zip archive named Whirlpool_filelist.txt and Whirlpool_part1.7z respectively.
In October the Nefilim ransomware operators leaked a long list of files belonging to Italian eyewear and eyecare giant Luxottica.
Other victims of the ransomware gang are the mobile network operator Orange, the independent European leader in multi-technical services The SPIE Group, the German largest private multi-service provider Dussman Group, and the Toll Group.
