This briefing explains a public 2024 advisory. It is not a live incident feed; consult the original source and current vendor guidance for updates.
What the advisory tells us
The joint advisory describes affiliates using phishing and known vulnerabilities for initial access, then stealing data and encrypting systems. It reported more than 500 affected organizations worldwide as of May 2024; the number should not be treated as current.
What teams can do
Plan for both operational recovery and a possible data exposure. Protect and test backups, patch exposed systems, require strong authentication, and document notification responsibilities before an incident.
