The FBI categorized the attack as “unique” as they had not seen this level of sophistication among the many other attacks, they have experience with.

No, your security is shit, just like most other companies, and you didn't bother paying attention to security, and probably didn't even bother updating and maintaining the security you did have. This is your fault because you're a bunch of fucking retards that think vacuum tubes are still a viable product for consumer use.

ps...you didn't keep an offline backip? You're double fucking stupid.

Could have compromised the backups by laying low for a few months but I doubt it. Boomer level lack of security and backups is the most likely culprit.

If they'd had a backup, we wouldn't be hearing about this.

They'd just stop everything, disconnect, restore, and figure out how the entry happened before going live again.

Yeah but the scammers are getting wise to this and are leaving their stuff on the compromised machines long enough that you end up backing up the ransomware. So you nuke everything and restore and the timer goes off and it crypto locks everything again.

Not saying that's what happened here, just that that is becoming the routine practice now. Gotta make sure you're keeping backups back a year or so to make sure you don't get totally fucked.

I always wonder why these places hit by ransomware don't just sigh and run the latest backup. I suppose they don't have backups.
