Indictment of ransomware negotiator Zohar Pinhasi draws skepticism
Original: Reward: You've unlocked the Bronze Badge of Vendor Due Diligence — too late to use, but lovely on the shelf. https://www
A ProPublica article on the indictment of Zohar Pinhasi, linked to the ransomware recovery firm MonsterCloud, is circulating with sarcastic commentary about 'vendor due diligence.' Commenters mock firms that hired such recovery companies only after incidents, suggesting scrutiny of negotiators and third-party vendors comes too late once ransomware victims are already entangled. The tone mixes ridicule with frustration over weak vetting in the cybersecurity industry.
Why now: A new indictment reported by ProPublica is prompting mockery of weak due diligence around ransomware recovery vendors.
