| Titre | Ransomware makes California nursing school feel ill |
| Texte | About three months ago, an instructor at Gurnick Academy, a California-based nursing school, had his biggest fear come alive. When he tried to access his lectures, the files were encrypted. The teacher was literally locked out of his classroom.If it wasn't for a quick acting IT department, the entire school might have been in the same situation. They noticed the incident at the early stage and managed to prevent the encryption from spreading by disconnecting the infected device from the corporate network.Val Paschenko, IT department manager at the school, said the instructor was met with a ransomware note demanding 1 bitcoin or $740 in exchange for the files to be decrypted. The instructor called support and requested to get his files back, but it was already too late. He lost some recently created files, and he needed to redo some of his work. It took a few hours to reinstall the OS and configure everything; obviously during that time he was not able to work on his PC. To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here |
