The Lower Sioux Indian Community faced a significant cyberattack disrupting operations of its healthcare facility, government center, and casino. After enduring technological outages, incident response protocols were activated due to compromised systems at Jackpot Junction casino. Essential communications were impacted, leading to the offline status of phones, faxes, and emails. The attack immobilized hotel booking systems and digital gaming at the casino. As remediation, external experts have been enlisted and provisional contact methods deployed. The RansomHub ransomware gang claimed responsibility for the attack, underscoring the rising threat level from this sophisticated cybercriminal group.
