VOICED : El gigante mundial de la carne JBS pagó rescate de USD 11 millones a hackers

JBS, a major meat processing company, paid $11 million in bitcoins as ransom to hackers after a cyberattack disrupted its operations in North America and Australia. The US government suspects the attack originated from a Russian-based criminal organization and is considering possible responses. This incident is part of a larger trend of significant cyberattacks, such as the one on Colonial Pipeline, which affected fuel supply in the US. Ransomware attacks exploit security vulnerabilities to lock systems and demand payment for unlocking. In 2020, hackers collected at least $18 billion in ransoms.
