ʻO ka hoʻouka kaua Cyber ​​maʻamau i ka hewa a i ʻole ka manaʻo politika. Hiki paha i kēia 9/11 cyber-attack ke hoʻoikaika politika? A i ʻole he hana hewa wale nō i hoʻolālā ʻia e laina i nā ʻeke o nā mea hoʻouka?

Ransomware Versus Terrorism

Hoʻohālikelike pinepine ʻia ʻo Ransomware me ka hoʻoweliweli, no ka mea, e like me ka terrorism, ʻo ka ransomware e kālele ana i nā pahuhopu palupalu e like me nā ʻōnaehana koʻikoʻi kīwila, akā ʻaʻole like me ka terrorism, ʻo ia ka mea nui i ke kālā.

Manaʻo ʻia ʻo kahi hui i kapa ʻia ʻo Scattered Spider ke kuleana no ka uhaki ʻikepili MGM. Hoʻohana maʻamau kēia hui i ka ransomware i hana ʻia e ALPHV, i ʻike ʻia ʻo BlackCat. ʻO kahi hui e hahai ana i ke kaiāulu hacker ʻōlelo ʻo ia ʻo BlackCat i hoʻololi i ka MGM ma o ka hoʻohana ʻana iā LinkedIn e ʻike i ka ʻike o kahi limahana a laila e komo i kahi kamaʻilio 10 mau minuke me ka Help Desk.

Ua uku ʻo Caesars Entertainment, ka mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻia e ka poʻe hackers i kēia manawa, i nā miliona o ke kālā no ka hoʻouka kaua i hana ʻia i nā lā ma mua o Kepakemapa 7.

ʻO nā hoʻouka kaua he mau Triliona

Ke kūʻai nei kēia mau mea hoʻoweliweli hou o ka honua cyber i nā hui kālā he miliona i ka ʻikepili IP ʻaihue. ʻO ka mea mua, hoʻouka lākou, a laila koi lākou i uku pānaʻi, pēlā e wehewehe ai i ka ransomware.

ʻO Ransomware ka polokalamu kino i hoʻolālā ʻia e hōʻole i ka mea hoʻohana a i ʻole ka hui i ke komo ʻana i nā faila ma kā lākou kamepiula. Ma ka hoʻopili ʻana i kēia mau faila a me ke koi ʻana i ka uku pānaʻi no ke kī decryption, hoʻonoho nā cyberattackers i nā hui ma kahi kūlana kahi e uku ai i ka pānaʻi ke ala maʻalahi a maʻalahi loa e loaʻa hou ai i kā lākou faila.

Ke noi pinepine nei nā hui Ransomware i nā uku he nui i ka hoʻouka kaua ransomware pālua. Loaʻa i ka mea mua nā kī decryption i kahi hui, a ʻo ka lua e hōʻoia ʻaʻole i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka ʻikepili, akā naʻe, ʻaʻole i hoʻihoʻi mau ʻia ka ʻikepili. ʻOiai inā e uku ana kahi hui, ʻaʻohe mea hōʻoia e hoʻihoʻi nā mea hoʻouka i ka ʻikepili a hāʻawi i ke kī decryption.

Ma waho aʻe o ka mea i manaʻo ʻia $100 miliona poho ma ka loaʻa ʻana o ka waiwai i hoʻololi ʻia ma mua o ka ukupanee, ʻauhau, hoʻemi ʻia, amortization, a me ka hoʻolimalima no nā hōkele ʻo Las Vegas Strip a me nā hana ʻāpana ʻē aʻe, manaʻo ʻo MGM e loaʻa nā uku ma lalo o $10 miliona e uhi ana i nā hoʻolimalima hoʻokahi manawa e like me nā uku kānāwai a me ke kūkākūkā ʻenehana.

Ua hōʻike nui ʻia ua uku ʻo Caesars i $15 miliona o kahi pānaʻi $30 miliona i ʻimi ʻia e Scattered Spider no ka ʻōlelo hoʻohiki e hoʻopaʻa i kāna ʻikepili.

Wahi a kekahi kanaka i kapa ʻole ʻia, hōʻole ʻo MGM e uku i kahi koi pānaʻi i loaʻa iā ia, ʻaʻole i hōʻoia a hōʻole ʻole ʻo MGM.

OLELO HOOLAHA MGM

Wahi a ka Luna Hoʻokele o MGM Hornbuckle, ʻaʻohe helu helu waihona kālā a i ʻole ka ʻike kāleka uku i hoʻohālikelike ʻia i ka hanana, akā ua ʻaihue ka poʻe hacker i nā ʻike pilikino ʻē aʻe e like me nā inoa, ka ʻike pili, nā helu laikini kaʻa, nā helu Social Security, a me nā helu passport no kekahi mau mea kūʻai. nāna i hana ʻoihana me MGM ma mua o Malaki o 2019.
