Case Study - Mircom Technologies LTD. (A): Responding To A Ransomware Attack?
In September 2019 Mircom Technologies Limited (Mircom) faced a serious crisis after undergoing a ransomware attach. This medium-sized manufacturer had been offering smart building solutions for nearly two decades. The attackers encrypted all of the company's data, halting all business systems and processes that relied on information technology, including email, voice-over-interent telephones, manufacturing, billin, shipping and receiving. The company could not even conduct basic business operations.?
?The attackers demanded a large payment in Bitcoin in exchange for a decryption key that would give Mircom access to its data. Over the next several weeks, the CEO and the CTO (chief technology officer) faced unforeseen challenges as they led efforts to recover the data, negotiate with the attackers and ultimately find a path to successful restoration of normal operations and build resiliency.?
