Ransomware Incident Involving ADP Partner Compromises Broadcom Employee Data
A recent ransomware attack on Business Systems House (BSH), a partner of payroll provider ADP in the Middle East, resulted in the breach of employee data belonging to Broadcom. The attack occurred in September 2024, with the stolen data surfacing online by December of the same year. However, Broadcom was not made aware of the incident until May 2025.
The El Dorado ransomware group has publicly claimed responsibility for this data breach. The timeline highlights the potential risks and consequences associated with cyber incidents, particularly in the context of third-party relationships.
Companies are urged to reassess their cybersecurity protocols and incident response strategies to mitigate the risks posed by such attacks. It is crucial for organizations to maintain robust communication channels with their partners to ensure timely notifications of any data security breaches that may impact them directly.
