Greg and Dan talk with Dave Johnson, at Pearl Technology, about the emergence of a new ransomware group known as SafePay and its recent cyberattack on Ingram Micro, a global leader in IT distribution and supply chain services.
Ingram Micro, which generates over $48 billion in annual revenue and employs tens of thousands of people worldwide, fell victim to a major breach despite its vast resources and robust infrastructure. The situation highlights the growing sophistication of cybercriminals and the reality that no organization is immune to cyberattacks, regardless of size or budget.
SafePay, the ransomware group behind the attack, has reportedly deployed over 220 ransomware payloads to date. Previously known for targeting organizations in the legal sector, the group appears to be expanding its focus to global enterprise-level targets, with Ingram Micro now in their crosshairs.
