Marcus & Millichap, a publicly traded real estate investment firm, suffered a recent cyber attack that may have been the work of the BlackMatter ransomware gang, according to a malware sample found on Hatching Triage.
The firm revealed in an 8-K filing with the SEC Monday that it “had been subject to a cybersecurity attack on its information technology systems.” Marcus & Millichap claimed that the firm had seen no evidence of a data breach, and it did not identify the attack as a ransomware incident.
