The recent supply-chain attack on Kaseya by the REvil ransomware group impacted dozens of managed service providers (MSPs) who rely on Kaseya VSA, as well as thousands of small businesses that are managed by those MSPs. While the initial ransom demand was dropped from $70 million to $50 million, the pain and frustration of those targeted rose steadily during the incident.

Our global network of Acronis Cyber Protection Operations Centers (CPOCs) continue to work around the clock to proactively detect and defend against the latest cyberthreats. Part of this work includes video updates to inform you of modern hazards in the digital landscape — such as ransomware strikes against U.S. infrastructure and brand-new threats to watch out for. Here’s a look at some of the most recent breaking news and analyses:

The world’s largest meat supplier, JBS, was forced to halt operations at many of its U.S. and Australian processing plants after a massive cyberattack. This activity threatened supply chains across the world, and resulted in an immediate rise in wholesale red meat prices. This cyberattack, while notable in its own right, is also simply the latest example in a dangerous pattern of escalating ransomware hazards.

The Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center (MSTIC) has uncovered a wide-scale spear phishing campaign driven by Nobelium — the threat actors behind the recent SolarWinds attacks and the SUNBURST backdoor used in those strikes. Nobelium continues its attacks on U.S. agencies and the private organizations in their sphere. The group managed to hijack an email distribution account used by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), sending thousands of authentic-looking but malware-laden messages to a variety of human rights groups, think tanks, and other organizations.
