Ransomware Group Claims Cyber Breach of Xerox Subsidiary

The cyber incident's scope was limited to XBS in the US and has now been contained after initially being discovered by Xerox cybersecurity personnel.
Xerox Corp. makes office and production printers, projectors, scanners, and a variety of other office equipment.
Though Xerox said neither XBS nor Xerox corporate data and operations were impacted, an investigation by a third-party cybersecurity firm has led Xerox to believe that personal information was accessed in the breach.
The company has not released any information as to who the threat actors were, but ransomware gang INC Ransom added Xerox to its list of victims on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Xerox said it plans to notify all individuals whose personal information had been compromised in the breach.
