Ransomware Strikes Port of San Diego<\/h3>\n

On September 25, 2018, the Port of San Diego in California was hit with an unknown ransomware variant.\u00a0 Over the last three days, park permits, business filings, and public record requests have slowed down to a glacial pace.\u00a0 In addition, the San Diego Harbor Police Department was forced to used\u00a0alternative systems due since their traditional networks were left inaccessible.<\/p>\n

Port CEO Randa Coniglio reported<\/a> creating a team of industry experts at local, state and federal levels in order to\u00a0lessen the impact\u00a0of the attack and remediate systems to full functionality as quickly as possible.\u00a0 This\u00a0team has not offered up any information regarding the extent of the attack, or the total damages.<\/p>\n
