Casio recovery from ransomware attack uncertain, ‘no prospect of recovery yet’

Earlier this month, Japanese electronics company Casio was hit with a cyberattack that led to the shutdown of parts of its digital infrastructure. Now, almost a week on from the incident, Casio is struggling to overcome the damage.

Ransomware group ‘Underground’ claimed responsibility for the attack, and shared samples of alleged stolen data on its dark web site. A spokesperson for Casio told TechCrunch that the firm sees no end to the outage in the near future and that several systems are still unusable after servers were disconnected to prevent damage spreading.
