The city of Wichita, Kansas, announced that it was targeted by a ransomware attack in early May. This attack forced the city to shut down parts of the network, as ransomware was encrypted within its IT systems.
“Lot of people not enjoying Cinco de Mayo this weekend! It's key to find out how the ransomware first obtained initial access to the environment. Was it social engineering, unpatched software or firmware, or something else? If they can't identify how the ransomware first got initial access it's going to be a lot harder to prevent it from happening again.”
