BleepingComputer reports that the American Dental Association was impacted by a cyberattack over the weekend, prompting the shutdown of some parts of its network.
The ADA sent emails to its members noting that some of its systems, including ADA email and Aptify, as well as its web chat and telephone lines, have been disrupted as a result of the attack on Friday.
Impacted systems were immediately taken down, with the ADA leveraging Gmail addresses while its email systems are offline. State dental associations, including those in Florida, New York, and Virginia, have also been hit by the ADA breach.
The attack on ADA has been claimed by the newly-emergent Black Basta ransomware group, which security researcher MalwareHunterTeam revealed began exposing data claimed to have been stolen during the intrusion.
Black Basta has already exposed nearly 2.8GB of data, or 30% of stolen data from ADA, in its data leak site, with the exfiltrated files including non-disclosure agreements, W2 forms, accounting spreadsheets, and ADA member data.

Attackers behind the scheme placed an ad on the LEGO website homepage that urged visitors to click a link that would "unlock secret rewards," which redirects to a third-party marketplace enabling purchases of the fraudulent LEGO token with Ethereum.
Threat actors who infiltrated the online store of 5.11 Tactical were able to exfiltrate information from individuals who shopped from July 12 to August 22, including their names and email addresses, as well as their payment card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes.
