Hackers brutally attacked a Russian cloud company, deleting everything in their path

A Russian cloud service provider, Beget, had to rebuild its entire infrastructure from scratch due to a data-wiping malware attack. The attack, which began on November 1, resulted in the permanent deletion of all information stored on their servers. Although Beget quickly disconnected its servers from the network, it could not stop the malware's spread. The company, serving over 200,000 clients, reported that it has managed to restore 40-60% of its systems more than a week after the attack, but the recovery process is ongoing. The attackers also apologized to patients affected by a separate attack on a U.S. institution, promising compensation, though its legitimacy is uncertain. The incident has been reported to the police, and government agencies are investigating.
