CD PROJEKT RED has disclosed a ransomware attack that impacted its network. The video game development studio behind Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher trilogy was hit by a little-known ransomware group named HelloKitty. The Polish gaming studio said in an official statement that the attackers breached the internal network and were able to collect the company’s capital group data before encrypting systems and leaving behind a ransom note. The company said it will not pay the ransom requested by the ransomware operators and it will also not negotiate to have the stolen data deleted.
