The Qilin ransomware group says it has compromised Nissan’s Creative Box Inc. (CBI), a Tokyo-based design subsidiary of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd, and is threatening to release sensitive files unless its demands are met.

On its dark web leak site, the group claimed it had copied more than 4 terabytes of data, including 405882 files, from Nissan CBI. The post alleged that the stolen material includes 3D design data, reports, photos, videos, and various internal documents linked to Nissan automobile projects.

In its message, Qilin wrote: “The 4TB of data we copied includes 3D design data, reports, photos, videos and various documents of Nissan automobiles. While we have no intention of releasing all of this data yet, if Nissan refuses to acknowledge or ignore, it will. At that point, everyone, including competitors, will have access to detailed data of all Nissan CBI projects.”
