Netfilim ransomware operators recently leaked the data of W&T Offshore Inc.
W&T Offshore has been an independent oil and natural gas producer active in the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties in the Gulf of Mexico since 1983. For the past 36 + years, we have successfully discovered and produced properties on the conventional shelf and in the deepwater across the Gulf of Mexico thanks to the significant technical expertise of our Founder and CEO, Tracy Krohn, and the team he has assembled. They began trading on the NYSE under ticker symbol “WTI” in 2005 and our headquarters is in Houston, Texas.
Based on the information leaked, it appears that the negotiation between the ransomware operators and W&T Offshore failed, which made them leak the data. The ransomware operators claim to have over 800GB of company’s data, but as per now they just leaked around 10 GB of it. This small data leak from the large lot seems to be a warning for the company to accept the terms of the ransomware operators.
