From BC article:

Semiconductor giant AMD says they are investigating a cyberattack after the RansomHouse gang claimed to have stolen 450 GB of data from the company last year.

RansomHouse is a data extortion group that breaches corporate networks, steals data, and then demands a ransom payment to not publicly leak the data or sell it to other threat actors.

For the past week, RansomHouse has been teasing on Telegram that they would be selling the data for a well-known three-letter company that starts with the letter A.

Yesterday, the extortion group added AMD to their data leak site, claiming to have stolen 450 GB of data.
