Ransomware Attack Disrupts Greek Postal Services

Greek postal service Hellenic Post – or ELTA – has disclosed information on a ransomware incident that forced the organization to pull a majority of its operations offline. ELTA took its data center offline and isolated it, which resulted in a temporary suspension of all commercial information systems of all post offices throughout the country. On Tuesday, ELTA issued a fresh statement saying that the incident had not been a simple malware attack as initially thought, but a targeted ransomware attack “aimed at encrypting the critical systems” used in its daily operations.”]
