On May 22, 2024, Power Test, a test and measurement equipment manufacturer, was listed on the LockBit 3.0 ransomware leak site. The disclosure indicates that internal files were exfiltrated during a ransomware attack, with the group claiming access to 5 terabytes of data and 4.5 million files.

Details in the Leak-Site Listing

The LockBit 3.0 posting states that Power Test, which generates roughly $32.6 million in annual revenue, had its private information stolen. The listing explicitly mentions passports, bank statements, credit cards, blueprints, and personal information belonging to both clients and employees. The primary disclosure does not quantify the exact number of affected individuals, nor does it specify which systems were initially compromised. It simply states that data was exfiltrated and is now hosted for download on the extortion platform.

Internal files and personal information of clients and employees form the core of what the attackers say they obtained. The leak site does not detail the precise breakdown of record types beyond the categories listed above, leaving the full scope of exposure unknown to the public at this time.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you or any member of your family has ever done business with Power Test, worked there, or had your information stored in their systems, your sensitive documents may now be in the hands of criminals. Passports, bank statements, and credit card details can be used to open accounts in your name, file fraudulent tax returns, or drain existing accounts. Even if you are not a direct customer, employee data often includes family members listed as emergency contacts or beneficiaries, pulling entire households into the breach.
