Daniel Morin reports (translation): This is the first time that the city of Isle-sur-la-Sorgue (Vaucluse) has been the victim of such a computer attack , undoubtedly from abroad. It was 4:42 am exactly this friday morning when hackers broke into the community’s servers remotely. All files experience been encrypted and experience been unusable since. no file can live exploited and we are being asked for a ransom of 500,000 euros to regain the decryption key! Laments Mayor Pierre Gonzalv�s. It will take days of act to get everything right Fortunately, the municipal data was stored in duplicate in an independent external server. They are therefore not lost, but it will accept several days of act for the city’s technical services and IT specialists to recover and reinstall the files, one after the other. scan more on France Bleu. They doh not identify the ransomware threat actors. kudos to the municipality for having a protected and usable backup. h/t, @Chum1ng0
