TechGlobal Inc.

In March 2024, TechGlobal Inc., a leading technology firm specializing in data analytics, faced a severe ransomware attack. The cybercriminal group 'FutureHack' exploited a vulnerability in the company's file transfer protocol, leading to the encryption of critical data and operational disruption. As a result, TechGlobal Inc. was compelled to halt its services temporarily, affecting its clientele worldwide. The hackers demanded a ransom of $2 million for the decryption key. This attack not only caused significant financial losses estimated at $30 million due to operational downtime but also tarnished the company's reputation. Investigations revealed that sensitive client data, including financial records and proprietary algorithms, were potentially compromised.
