Dragos, a Leading Cybersecurity Firm, Suffers Cyberattack Setback

Cybersecurity firm Dragos has recently disclosed that it was the target of a ransomware attack that was fortunately prevented from causing any major harm. The attack was carried out by a threat actor who gained access to Dragos’ system through a previously compromised email account belonging to a newly employed member of staff. They used this access to impersonate the new employee and access resources typically used by new sales employees, such as SharePoint and the Dragos contact management system.
