This week the biggest news was attackers breaking into Iomega NAS devices, wiping the drives, and then leaving ransom notes behind. It is not known if any users were able to recover their files after paying the ransom. We also had a new Android ransomware that was using infected phones to spread itself other victims via SMS texts. The main goal of Clop is to encrypt all files in an enterprise and request a payment to receive a decryptor to decrypt all the affected files. We observed some new techniques being used by the author that we have seen over the last few months.
