WastedLocker ransomware hits Boyne Resorts ski resort operator
2020-10-23 16:14

US-based ski and golf resort operator Boyne Resorts has suffered a cyberattack by the WastedLocker operation that has impacted company-wide reservation systems.

Today, BleepingComputer received an anonymous tip from an alleged Boyne Resorts employee who stated that the company suffered an undisclosed ransomware attack last weekend.

We were told that the attack affected their corporate offices and then spread to IT systems of the resorts they operate, forcing them to shut down portions of their network to prevent the ransomware spread. BleepingComputer has since confirmed with a second source that Boyne Resorts was attacked using the WastedLocker ransomware, the same one used in the attack on Garmin in July.

Due to its earlier date, we do not believe this is the exact sample used in the attack on Boyne Resorts.

BleepingComputer has contacted Boyne Resorts with further questions about this attack but has not received a reply.
