Last month hackers infiltrated a server used by Jones Day, one of the largest and most successful law firms in the world. After failed attempts to extort payment from the firm, the hackers have now uploaded gigabytes of of highly sensitive data that were stolen in the attack.
For its part, Jones Day denies that any of its own servers were compromised. There are indications that the firm’s data was stolen during a larger hack that impacted multiple clients of a major file sharing service provider. In a statement provided to The Wall Street Journal, a Jones Day spokesperson named Accellion as that provider.
