Stanford University and the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) announced they were victimized by the Accellion data breach, joining a growing list of schools. Reports indicate the CLOP ransomware group contacted the universities and demanded $10 million in bitcoin or the attackers would publish the stolen data.

The University of Miami confirmed on March 23 that it has experienced a ransomware attack involving Accellion, a third-party provider of hosted file transfer services.
