As expected, more details are emerging in other news outlets about the arrest of #ShinyHunters.
One detail I noted is that ShinyHunters is suspected of being responsible for the attacks on #LVMH, which is the high-end brand associated with Tiffany and Dior, who both reported breaches this year. Although there had been some speculation that #ScatteredSpider might be responsible for those breaches, it appears that ShinyHunters was allegedly responsible.
There have been a number of hacks this year where it is not clear -- in the absence of law enforcement confirmation -- whether a #databreach has been by Scattered Spider or ShinyHunters, or whether they have collaborated with one doing the hacking and the other doing the extortion. I predict in weeks/months to come, we will be given a pretty big list of big hacks that ShinyHunters has been involved in this year.
As I reported in my coverage of the PowerSchool hack and prosecution of Matthew Lane, ShinyHunters' name has been linked to that one, too, but was not named as a co-conspirator.
This is where I should write "This is a developing story..." huh?
