Ransomware in the cloud

Insights from practical experience

Background

Recently we were engaged by a company after they were targeted by a ransomware attack in their AWS environment. In this blog we want to show you what happened and how we were able to piece together the picture based on available logging.

Due to confidentiality we will be using censored screenshots to protect our client’s information. They approved the publication of this blog, to prevent other companies from becoming a victim to a similar attack.
