Hello everyone. It seems like Vice Society is not done, but what actor is done with work they are set to do?
According to an article I recently spotted, the group is now setting their sights on manufacturing as their next target.
This came from the folks at the research department at one of our companies, Trend Micro. It was a very interesting article to read.
They made headlines late last year and even started this year with a bang too. One of the attributions was toward the RTD system in San Francisco.
They have been known to target education and health care as well.
While they’re targeting outside the United States right now, it would not surprise me if they found a good reason to change their mind. They were reportedly responsible for the print nightmare vulnerability which may still be a problem today.
In any case, we’ll be talking about this on a future security box podcast, and we may end up getting updates if any are posted around the net.
The article is titled Vice Society Ransomware Group Targets Manufacturing Companies and I honestly think it should be read.
If we don’t know what actors are doing to other places, how can we protect ourselves if they ever changed their mind and attacked us?
Great article, Trend. It was well worth the read. Thanks for sharing and making your work available for us to read and share.
