At the end of July, a hacker attack was carried out on Canon’s services by a virus that encrypted documents and photos with a total volume of about 10 terabytes stored in the cloud, and now the fraudsters have presented the company with conditions for resuming correct work.
So, they got in touch with representatives of Canon and announced the need to pay the ransom in cryptocurrency. Despite the fact that the exact amount has not been specified, it is known that if the conditions are not met, the user data blocked by hackers will be published on the Internet in the coming week.
