Ransomware Crypto-Locks Port of San Diego IT Systems

The Port of San Diego was hit by a crypto-locking ransomware attack on Tuesday. Hackers demanded a ransom, payable in bitcoin, in exchange for the promise of a decryption key. The port says it’s working with the FBI and the U.S. Coast Guard to investigate the incident. Officials say the port remains open, public safety operations are ongoing, and ships and boats continue to access the bay without impacts from the cyber-security incident. The attack targeted the shipping sector, which has not been immune to ransomware attacks.”]
