Konica Minolta hit by second huge ransomware attack
Japan-based business technology giant Konica Minolta was hit by a new ransomware strain, which brought its services down for almost a week.
On July 30, customers reported not being able to access the company’s product supply and support site, met instead with a “service temporarily unavailable” message. Soon after, the company’s printers also started displaying a “Service Notification Failed” error.
The company itself remained quiet on the matter, to the extent that customers “could not get a straight answer as to what was causing the outage”, according to Bleeping Computer.
