"We are grateful for the support we've received from our customers and industry colleagues."Customers were the first to find the IT distributor's websites down, unable to place any online orders.The ransomware was initially identified on certain internal systems at Ingram, so the company took some of its systems offline and implemented mitigation measures. Ingram also initiated an investigation alongside third-party experts.Ingram Micro also filed an 8-K form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission following the attack and apologized to customers and partners for the disruption.It still remains unclear which ransomware gang is responsible for the attack, though Bleeping Computer reported that the ransom note sent to Ingram Micro allegedly is from SafePay. At press time, the attacker had made no mention of Ingram Micro on its Dark Web leak site.Read more about:News BriefsAbout the AuthorKristina BeekAssociate Editor, Dark ReadingKristina Beek is an associate editor at Dark Reading, where she covers a wide range of cybersecurity topics and spearheads video-related content.
