Just thought I'd post a quick note. Make sure you've got backups, your
backups are stored off-server, and you are enforcing strong passwords
and cracking down on vulnerable websites. We're working with a
customer that has been infected by the new Jungle_Sec ransomware
variant. It's not just Windows machines that are vulnerable anymore.
And if you happen to know of someone expert in these matters (or you,
yourself may be) then hit me up offline. I don't pretend to have all
the answers and have directed the customer to reach out to someone with
experience in this sort of thing. We think there are clean backups, but
it's a roughly 20TB site that got hit. Yeah... it's big. (To answer
the obvious, I've already recommended against paying the .4 bitcoin
ransom.)
