In September 2024, GlobalTech Innovations suffered a severe ransomware attack by a group known as CyberClaw. The attackers managed to encrypt critical data across various departments, causing significant operational disruption. Despite efforts to restore systems from backups, the decryption process was slow, and a significant amount of recent data could not be recovered. The attack was highly sophisticated, bypassing existing security measures and exploiting previously unknown vulnerabilities. As a result, GlobalTech faced considerable financial losses, both from the cost of the recovery process and from lost revenue during the downtime. Additionally, the attack damaged the company's reputation, resulting in a temporary dip in stock prices and loss of trust among some clients.
