The BlackCat Ransomware group claims to have breached the company infrastructure and to have stolen 2TB of data, including secret military data related to weapons production.

“Because of low security, more than 2TB of sensitive data related to weapons production was stolen from Solar Industries India Limited.” reads the message published on the leak site. “The data leakage affected all products and classified documents of the company.

And much more.”

Stolen data includes:

The group invites anyone wishing to bid on all Solar Group data within 24 hours of the publication of its blog to contact them in TOX.

It is interesting to notice that the gang claims have serious evidence of industrial spying in other countries (including friendly states).
