Daily Cybersecurity Update, September 15, 2023

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. The aftermath of this malicious breach has gravely disrupted their crucial services, compelling them to divert patients and reschedule vital appointments.
