Kurt 'The CyberGuy' Knutsson explains how a type of ransomware called 'LockBit' is attacking Mac computers and what steps you should take to protect yourself.
with LockBit are mostly attacking big businesses by infiltrating their systems and encrypting their sensitive files. Most recently, they have gone after SpaceX by breaching one of their suppliers and stealing data. They have also recently gone after SickKids, a hospital in Canada for sick children. LockBit is believed to be an organization run by Russians, however, it is likely being run in the U.S. or China.
Although LockBit has been around for a few years, it has not advanced much when it comes to attacking Macs.For now, all you Mac users can cautiously take a breath of relief as LockBit doesn't seem to have much figured outwhen it comes to attacking personal Mac computers. However, it can never hurt to take the extra step to protect yourself.
