Security News > 2021 > April > Asteelflash electronics maker hit by REvil ransomware attack
Asteelflash, a leading French electronics manufacturing services company, has suffered a cyberattack by the REvil ransomware gang who is demanding a $24 million ransom.
Asteelflash is a world-leading French electronics manufacturing services company that specializes in the design, engineering, and printing of printed circuit boards.
While Asteelflash has not publicly disclosed an attack, BleepingComputer found this week a sample of the REvil ransomware that allowed access to the Tor negotiation page for their cyberattack.
The Tor payment site showed a brief conversation between the REvil threat actors and Asteelflash.
Metadata of some of the shared files show that Asteelflash employees authored them.
BleepingComputer has contacted Asteelflash multiple times but has not received a response to our inquiries.
