Costa Rica declares emergency in ongoing cyber attack

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — (AP) — After a month of crippling ransomware attacks, Costa Rica has declared a state of emergency. President Rodrigo Chaves, who was sworn in Sunday, made the emergency declaration one of his first acts. The declaration refers to the attack Costa Rica is suffering at the hands of “cybercriminals” and “cyberterrorists.”The Russian-speaking Conti gang had claimed responsibility for the attack. Carlos Alvarado was still president when the attacks began and he said Costa Rica would not pay the gang any ransom. “The FBI estimates that as of January 2022, there had been over 1,000 victims of attacks associated with Conti ransomware with victim payouts exceeding $150,000,000, making the Conti Ransomware variant the costliest strain of ransomware ever documented,” the statement said.

Cyber attack causes chaos in Costa Rica government systems

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — (AP) — Nearly a week into a ransomware attack that has crippled Costa Rican government computer systems, the country refused to pay a ransom as it struggled to implement workarounds and braced itself as hackers began publishing stolen information. The Russian-speaking Conti gang claimed responsibility for the attack, but the Costa Rican government had not confirmed its origin. The affiliate attacking Costa Rica could be anywhere in the world, Liska said. A year ago, a Conti ransomware attack forced Ireland’s health system to shut down its information technology system, cancelling appointments, treatments and surgeries. “This is all ideal for phishing, we wish our colleagues from Costa Rica good luck in monetizing this data,” it said.
