The multinational based in Valcourt, in the Eastern Townships, published another update on Wednesday evening to take stock of its most recent discoveries.
“As a precaution, and to better protect the information of its employees, BRP has asked them to change their personal passwords,” the company said in a press release. In addition, as a preventive measure, the company will offer credit monitoring services to all its employees. »
On Tuesday, personal information about executives, details of agreements with suppliers, and confidentiality agreements were available on the underground web (dark web). Ransomware operators RansomExx uploaded about 30 gigabytes of documents, or several tens of thousands of files.
BRP says its investigation is ongoing and the “situation continues to evolve.” At this time, there is “no evidence” that customer personal information is involved.
