LockBit ransomware group assemble strike team to breach banks, law firms and governments.
Recently, I’ve been tracking LockBit ransomware group as they’ve been breaching large enterprises: I thought it would be good to break down what is happening and how they’re doing it, since LockBit are breaching some of the world’s largest organisations — many of whom have incredibly large security budgets. Through data allowing the tracking of ransomware operators, it has been possible to track individual targets. Recently, it has become clear they have been targeting a vulnerability in Citrix Netscaler, called CitrixBleed. Prior reading:

2022 RTF Global Ransomware Incident Map: Attacks continue worldwide, groups splinter, education sector hit hard
According to ecrime.ch data, confirmed ransomware incidents occurred in 105 countries, originating from 58 ransomware groups.  This number is relatively consistent with last year’s data, in which we calculated that incidents impacted organizations in 109 countries and documented at least 60 distinct ransomware families.  Though the overall statistics remain relatively consistent from last year to this year, there is more to the story: new trends in the ecosystem include the shifting dynamics of ransomware groups, the rise of the education sector as a key target, and the trends in geographic distribution of attacks.

Breast Imaging During a Cyberattack and Global Pandemic: What We Did to Pick Up the Pieces - ScienceDirect
Breast Imaging During a Cyberattack and Global Pandemic: What We Did to Pick Up the Pieces - ScienceDirect
Cybersecurity in healthcare is a very real threat with the potential to severely disrupt patient care, place extra burden on an already strained system, and result in significant financial losses for a hospital or healthcare network. In October 2020, on the backdrop of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, our institution experienced one of the most significant cyberattacks on a healthcare system to date, lasting for nearly 40 days. By sharing our experience in radiology, and specifically in breast imaging, including the downtime procedures we relied upon and the lessons that we learned emerging from this cyberattack, we hope to help future victims of a healthcare cyberattack successfully weather such an experience.

Ransomware Negotiation: Dos and Don’ts!
Double extortion ransomware attacks have reached very high numerical values. One of the key elements, when suffering such an attack, concerns the negotiation that can be initiated (not always!) with the ransomware gang.
