uols laugh at dbkl incompetent IT but cyber ransom ppl are getting more effective, they have succesfully ransomed some of the largest companies in the world for millions of USD, so DBKL case is just the beginnign.

why so secretive, dont warn public immediately

No backup at all?

bro.. if they take the trouble to hsck, unless it’s an inside job, they will always ask for bitcoin.. at least 1… ( those who have been hacked will know this)..

Most likely paid in bitcoin unit not actual USD, this is just equivalent value.

dont have backup meh?

so long liao still can not solve meh?

my initial thought, the system went offline as soon ad they found out… because if you downloaded something document, the ransom ware will infect your pc too..

This is pretty funny considering it's actually called OWASP.

does that mean all our cc payment details also gone?

Data being encrypted then backup won't really help, when the system is online all the time and there are many new records being created all the time. If you restore the backup before the data being encrypted, then all those new records after the malware infection are lost. Even the audit trail or secondary realtime data trail might have been encrypted so they cannot be restored. And you cannot explain to the public that from certain date onward all your records with DBKL has been lost so if it involves money or application requests, then tough luck we don't really know what happened to them. That just won't work.

But I do think our national cyber unit is quite knowledgeable. They might be doing analysis of the compromised systems now and try to recover encryption keys if proper measure have been put in place earlier. But that could take time.

Ransomware 1 tink.
How much data stolen? 😁

Saman record hilang?

Thats why should sub to ....



So cannot complain services are down anymore.... 🤣🤣🤣

That's why you have an RPO that is commensurate with the criticality of the data. Restoring from immutable backups is still one of the only realistic strategy tonrecover from ransomware attacks.

Btw it has been 9 months since CSA 2024 was passed in parliament to protect our nation's CII, and yet not a single industry code of practice has been issued as of today.

IT staff or web manager should be fired

It head ask vendor, vendor ask contact worker. Semua x tau
