Shirbit's attackers broke into another company
The group of hackers BlackShadow, which is behind the break-in of the insurance company Shirbit about four months ago, attacked another Israeli company.
Today (Saturday), members of the cell announced - after a day of threats - that they had infiltrated the databases of KLS Capital, a company that deals with financing vehicles.
"We are here to update you on a cyber attack against KLS Capital Ltd. located in Israel," the attackers wrote in their telegram group. "Their server has been destroyed and their customer details are in our possession.
"After 72 hours of negotiations, they have decided not to pay 10 bitcoin coins and now we want to gradually leak some of their data."
As they did the previous time, last Wednesday the BlackShadow group issued a first threatening announcement, which read "Noisy news soon".
This morning, around 10:20, they posted another threat with blurry photos of customers under the message: "Last warning to the company."

Floyd's family is worth $ 27 million
The family of George Floyd, the African-American who strangled a police officer to death in May 2020, will receive $ 27 million in compensation from the city of Minneapolis in Minnesota, which is in charge of the city police.
This, as part of a settlement reached in the civil lawsuit that Floyd's family filed against the city authorities.
Floyd was killed on May 25 after being pinned to the sidewalk by Officer Derek Chubin for nearly 9 minutes.
The officer charged with the act was arrested and charged with second-degree murder.
"It's not just the policeman Derek Chubin's knee that was on George Floyd's neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, but a blessing from the entire Minneapolis police department that killed him," said attorney Ben Crump, who represents the family of the victim.
