Hackers with the Babuk Locker ransomware gang claim to have stolen 250GB of sensitive internal documents belonging to the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, DC, and are now extorting the public agency for an unknown sum of money. The stolen documents include intelligence on urban gang activity, local police informants, disciplinary files on the MPDs own officers, and what appears to be information on the agency’s response to the violent Jan. 6 Capitol riot riot. The gang is threatening to expose government informants embedded within local criminal networks if their ransom request is not met within three days.”]
