Ransomware group Alphv and BlackCat has filed a complaint with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against MeridianLink, a company that provides financial institutions with digital lending solutions and consumers with data verification solutions. The group claims to have breached MeridianLink’s systems and stolen customer data and operational information. They are threatening to leak the data unless a ransom is paid. In an unusual move, they have filed the complaint with the SEC, accusing MeridianLink of failing to disclose the breach within four business days as required. The SEC declined to comment on the matter.
