A prolific hacking group known for exploiting software vulnerabilities to attack multiple targets simultaneously claimed it had stolen large volumes of data from nearly 50 companies worldwide, including Philips, Shell, Fiserv and GE, according to a posting on the group's website. Philips said it had been targeted by Cl0p while Shell said it was aware of a recent "possible incident", confirming an earlier report on Thursday by Dutch media outlet BNR. "We are working with our security teams and relevant experts to investigate the situation," a Shell spokesperson said.
