<p>Last week, ransomware group Rhysida revealed it had hacked Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 developer, Insomniac Games. It posted images to prove the validity of its claim, demanding 50 bitcoin – roughly $2 million – from Sony within seven days or it would leak what it had discovered, as reported by <em><a href=”https://www.cyberdaily.au/culture/9931-spider-man-2-developer-insomniac-games-hit-by-rhysida-ransomware-attack”>CyberDaily</a></em>. Sony did not comply with the demand and now the group has released more than a terabyte of hacked data pertaining to Insomniac Games. </p>
<p>The total leak comprises more than 1.3 million files, for a total of 1.67 terabytes of data, according to <a href=”https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/insomniac-hacker-releases-more-than-1-3-million-files-including-personal-documents/”><em>VideoGamesChronicle</em></a> via <em><a href=”https://www.cyberdaily.au/culture/9959-snikt-rhysida-dumps-more-than-a-terabyte-of-insomniac-games-internal-data”>CyberDaily.</a> </em>The leaked data includes information about Marvel’s Spider-Man, future Insomniac Games titles, release schedules, and private employee information like tax and employment forms, internal studio messages, and more. <em>Game Informer </em>will not be disclosing any of the hacked information. </p>

<p><em>CyberDaily </em>reached out to Rhysida and learned the ransomware group specifically targeted Insomniac Games. “Yes, we knew who we were attacking,” a Rhysida spokesperson told the publication over email. The group also told <em>CyberDaily</em> its motivation for the hack was financial. </p>
