A cyberattack reportedly bearing the signature of Ryuk ransomware caused disruption over the weekend in printing and delivery of major newspapers in the US. The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, and Baltimore Sun, Lake County News-Sun, Post-Tribune, Hartford Courant, Capital Gazette, and Carroll County Times were among the publications affected by the attack. The Department of Homeland Security is aware of cyber incidents impacting multiple news outlets but it is unclear if these are related to Ryuk.
