The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) clarifies that the US has not halted surveillance operations against Russia and its affiliated threat groups.
CISA issues an urgent warning about the Qilin Ransomware Group, a Russian-speaking cybercriminal syndicate, which recently targeted hospital databases in London and disrupted operations at a major US-based newspaper publisher.
The Qilin Ransomware Group has expanded its operations internationally, targeting a prominent cancer treatment facility in Japan and stealing approximately 135GB of data.
Authorities and organizations are working to raise awareness, provide guidance, and enhance cybersecurity measures to protect against such malicious activities.
