At the end of May 2023, a Zero Day vulnerability was discovered by risk analysing firm Kroll and on June 7th of this year, Clop ransomware gang published on its blog that they have gained access to the servers of MOVEit software via Zellis Payroll software and urged the victims to contact via the blog post, as their email response could go at snail pace as the number of victims related to the incident was large.

And in the latest MoveIt software attack, the gang is suspected to have raked around $100m as ransom from its long list of victims.
