Dragos, a Leading Cybersecurity Firm, Suffers Cyberattack Setback

While the attack was prevented from accomplishing what the company believes to be their primary objective of launching ransomware, the attackers reached out to Dragos executives via WhatsApp to threaten the release of sensitive data to the dark web. As the company did not pay the ransom, the attackers resorted to mentioning family members, as well as reaching out to other Dragos contacts in an attempt to trigger a response.
