In the wake of a significant data breach last summer, Kirkland & Ellis is now facing a class action lawsuit. The breach, which stemmed from a vulnerability in the MOVEit file transfer software, affected over 50 organizations, including prominent law firms Proskauer Rose and K&L Gates. This lawsuit follows claims by the ransomware group CLOP, who asserted responsibility for the cyberattack.
The class action, filed in Massachusetts federal court, accuses Kirkland & Ellis of failing to adequately protect sensitive consumer data during a client acquisition by health care conglomerate Humana. For more details on the developing legal battle, you can read the original article here.
