Enzo Biochem experienced an April 2023 ransomware/data‑exfiltration incident where attackers used shared, long‑standing credentials (no MFA) to intrude, exfiltrate ~1.4 TB of sensitive data affecting 2.47 million individuals, and deploy an encryption payload; the company later paid regulatory fines and a $7.5M class‑action settlement and implemented security upgrades including MFA, EDR, a 24/7 SOC, and Zero Trust controls.
