Company Shuts Down Because of Ransomware, Leaves 300 Without Jobs Just Before Holidays (zdnet.com) 135

Posted by msmash from the real-life-costs dept.
An Arkansas-based telemarketing firm sent home more than 300 employees and told them to find new jobs after IT recovery efforts didn't go according to plan following a ransomware incident that took place at the start of October 2019. From a report: Employees of Sherwood-based telemarketing firm The Heritage Company were notified of the decision just days before Christmas, via a letter sent by the company's CEO. Speaking with local media, employees said they had no idea the company had even suffered a ransomware attack, and the layoffs were unexpected, catching many off guard. "Unfortunately, approximately two months ago our Heritage servers were attacked by malicious software that basically 'held us hostage for ransom' and we were forced to pay the crooks to get the 'key' just to get our systems back up and running," wrote Sandra Franecke, the company's CEO, in the letter sent to employees. She goes on to say that data recovery efforts, initially estimated at one week, have not gone according to plan and the company had failed to recover full service by Christmas. Franecke said the company lost "hundreds of thousands of dollars" because of the incident and have been forced to "restructure different areas in the company." As a result of the botched ransomware recovery process, the company's leadership decided to suspend all services, leaving more than 300 employees without jobs.

              Turns out there was an NLM on the server that conflicted with the ArcServe one, so we could either run application it was built for, or it could be backed up, but not both (it still reported successes). Essentially, that server had never been backed up in its lifetime. I got a project underway to replace it pretty sharpish as it was a pig to back up (needed to have windows where the users, being 24x7, worked in 'downtime procedures' each evening to get the backup done, and then backfill when the system came back).

              Good memories. I remember NLM conflicts and ArcServe on Novell 3.1.

              We switched to Windows servers so I never jocked a newer version of Novell.

              Still, the basic practices are still the same. Backup, disconnect, store offsite, rotate, test ...

      • PUSH vs PULL doesn't solve anything depending on how the ransomeware is triggered and what it locks. The ransomware can easily exist in your PULLed backup where the ransomware has encrypted your data but still allows the backup software to operate, and now your backup instance of the data is encrypted by the ransomware.

    • No backups or was it an time bomb that took 2 week be triggering so they rolled away?

      Probably 'No Backups'. In my experience, the time bomb ransomware is the sort of thing that slows you down, as long as the data lives on drives in an unencrypted state. Veeam, Altaro, BackupExec, and others allow file-based recovery. Restoring VMs may end up with the resultant VMs being encrypted therafter, so it might take a few attempts to realize the pattern and decide to do file-based restores on freshly built VMs. Even under those circumstances, it should be possible to get core applications and data back to a usable state within a week.

      The fact that it took two months, and they still weren't successful, leads me to believe that the timeline went like this: After realizing they had no backups (or, that their backups were returning a 'success' notification, but with no restoration tests to verify), they decided to pony up. Ransom guys gave them a decryption key, but they needed a second decryption key, because the files were double encrypted (I've had this happen). That was a second ransom, and the higher-ups weren't willing to pay the second ransom, so some data remains encrypted, and they decided to close up shop instead.

    Sounds like the company was mismanaged on on the brink of bankruptcy in the first place. The ransomware was just the proverbial final shove that knocked over the Coke machine. [youtube.com]

      Well what is a "telemarketing firm" anyway. Sounds like a couple servers, some AP/AR folks, a few IT guys, a SIP trunk, and lots a desk phones and cheap PCs, capped off by middle management and over paid exec team in a rented building.

      They probably don't keep much more cash on hand than is required to make pay roll, the rest they pay out as quickly as possible as bonuses to upper management/owners.

      Its not really "mismanaged" from the owner management perspective. It is a business with few assets that gener

          Well that is the point though. They have already probably reached PROFIT; they are not going to foul that up by trying to bail a sinking ship. They paid the ransom (so they say) probably because that appeared to meet my 'fast and cheap" criteria. When that did not work they are left with walk away.

          That does not really bother them. They lost some chump change couple 100k. Which was probably the companies cash reserves. In the mean time the owners all have made the money. Now they simple move on to the ne

    "Most of us are convinced that they're not going to reopen. I'm pretty sure they're just buying time because they know as soon as they're not going to reopen we're going to have to get a settlement and I think they just don't want us to take them to court," the employee told KATV.

    I wonder what this person expects? I think AZ is an at-will state, so I don't quite follow why they think they are getting a settlement of any kind for being laid off. They were not fired, so wrongful dismissal is going to be a tough argument when the company can point to very clear and direct reason for layoffs. I also kinda doubt the typical non-management employee has any kind of severance package specified in their employment contract..

  • Well, yes. Hacking/cracking costs money. Money that is used to employ people. Which is why it needs to be a real crime with serious prison time.

    • The computer fraud and abuse act needs to be gutted. Most of what it describes are civil matters, and as such face civil penalties; yet for the most minor things they attach hefty sentencing, and for less-minor things they attach...hefty sentencing, but it hasn't stopped anything.

      Actions which threaten life and limb or breach national security (implied to threaten life and limb) should be criminal.

    OK, windows claims another victim. However, that victim was stupid enough to rely on Windows for critical business infrastructure, so what we are talking about here is pure Darwinisim. Too bad about those employees, I'm sure Bill Gates is weeping for them.
