Manage episode 374553187 series 2441665
Welcome to the security box, podcast 157. This week, we ay be talking about a very interesting topic coming out of connecticut which might or might be a moron. We'll talk about other news and notes from the landscape, and yes, today's topic is on ransomware groups and one which says you should pay the money to charity instead of the group itself.
Morons of the podcast
We are going to link to the stories that deal with our moron(s) of the podcast.
- 10 people, including 16-year-old youth arrested for suspected involvement in malware scams Databreaches
- Five arrested in Poland for running bulletproof hosting service for cybercrime gangs — Europol databreaches
- Florida Healthy Kids notified by Maximus of MOVEit breach databreaches
- Diligere, Equity-Invest Are New Firms of U.K. Con Man Krebs On Security
Florida Healthy Kids is a very interesting story, mainly because of who they are partnering with. I guess we'll see what happens with them.
Ransomware group says: Pay a Charity
Today's topic comes to us from Cyberscoop way back in May. I've not seen another group do this, and I think its a one of a kind deal. I wish I were on that charity list, although I don't take crypto, but proof of donation would all that it would be.
Today's article is titled A different kind of ransomware demand: Donate to charity to get your data back which should be read just the same. If someone you know was hit by this group, did they get their files back?
