LMAO Garmin's network got hit by ransomware of piss

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/new...omware-attack/

A source close to the Garmin incident response and a Garmin employee confirmed to BleepingComputer that the WastedLocker ransomware attacked Garmin.

A Garmin employee told BleepingComputer that they first learned of the attack when they arrived at their office on Thursday morning.

BleepingComputer was told that the Garmin IT department had tried to remotely shut down all computers on the network as devices were being encrypted, including home computers connected via VPN.

After being unable to do so, employees were told to shut down any computer on the network that they had access to.

In a photo of a Garmin computer with encrypted files shared with BleepingComputer, you can see that the .garminwasted extension was appended to the file's name, and ransom notes were also created for each file.

BleepingComputer was told by one of the sources that the attackers are demanding a $10 million ransom.
