LockBit strikes once more! Two non-profit hospitals in New York have been targeted by a ransomware group, plunging them into a difficult struggle for recovery. The Scattered Spider threat group targeted yet another casino and hotel chain, unleashing a devastating ransomware attack. Caesars Entertainment’s loyalty program database was breached by the attackers. The consequences of previous data breaches have a way of haunting us in the present. Last year’s breach has led to a similar situation for LastPass users. Here are the top 10 highlights from the past 24 hours.

In a recent cyberattack, the notorious LockBit ransomware group successfully infiltrated two prominent hospitals in New York: the Carthage Area Hospital and Claxton-Hepburn Medical Center.

According to Trend Micro, the threat groups responsible for RedLine and Vidar have been employing identical techniques to propagate both ransomware and info-stealers. The attackers are using Extended Validation (EV) code signing certificates to sign the malware.
LastPass users are in danger of falling victim to a highly persuasive phishing email, which resembles the aftermath of last year’s security breach. The email asks users to verify their personal data or risk losing access to certain features.
The personal information of thousands of officers from Greater Manchester Police in the U.K. has been compromised due to a ransomware attack on a third-party supplier.
