<p>
Cybercriminals have been taking advantage of the most crucial global health calamity of the century to launch COVID-19-themed phishing campaigns. The ransomware threat landscape for Q3 2020 has increased 50 percent from the first half of the year, with the U.S. healthcare sector the most targeted globally.
</p>
<p>The recent spike in coronavirus cases has given threat actors the opportunity to launch ransomware attacks against the healthcare sector. In the last month, threat actors had launched ransomware attacks against Montreal Transit Corporation and some police officers of the Sûreté du Québec (STM). </p>
<p>Ryuk ransomware had compromised the Canton-Potsdam, Massena, and Gouverneur hospital systems and demanded ransom. Additionally, Sky Lakes Medical Center, Dickinson County Healthcare System, AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers Squibb, ERT (company), and IQVIA became victims of a ransomware attack in the past few weeks. </p>
