Ofcom confidential data downloaded in MOVEit hack

Confidential data about some companies regulated by Ofcom, and personal information from 412 employees was downloaded during the mass hack. MOVEit is software designed to move sensitive files securely and is popular around the world. A security flaw in the programme was exploited by hackers to gain access to a number of companies. Some organisations that do not even use MOVEit are affected because of third party arrangements. The criminals responsible for the hack are linked to the notorious Clop ransomware group, thought to be based in Russia. What is your take on confidential data being accessed and exposed by hackers ?
