Payments Giant Tipalti: No Ransomware Breach, No Threat to Roblox


BlackCat/ALPHV claims it has had access to the payments technology vendors systems since September, and threatens follow-on attacks on its customer Roblox.



Contrary to reported claims from notorious ransomware group BlackCat/ALPH, financial technology vendor Tipalti said its investigation has turned up no evidence of a breach so far.
Dark Web Informer shared a screenshot of a purported
Dark Web post from BlackCat/ALPHV
on social media, which claimed the gang has maintained persistent access to Tipaltis systems since Sept. 8. Further, it bragged it has exfiltrated mass amounts of data and threatened to go after Tipaltis customer Roblox. The post said it was a Tipalti insider that helped the ransomware group gain access.
To add a bit of intellectual heft to the extortion, the post quotes a piece of research from 2022 by Josiah Dykstra, arguing the benefits of paying a ransom demand, citing the
opportunity cost of action bias in cybersecurity incident response
.
Its safe to say the publication didnt persuade Tipalti to rush into negotiations. Instead, the payment-processing vendor said that it hasnt seen any proof of the ransomware groups claims.
Tipalti takes the security of our systems and data very seriously and has strong security protocols and tools in place, a company spokesperson tells Dark Reading. The Tipalti cybersecurity team and third-party forensic experts have been continually investigating this threat and have found no evidence of any breach or data leak of Tipalti or Tipalti customer data.
Roblox has not responded to a request for comment.
