Software developer Kaseya on Sunday released patches for its remote monitoring and management software, which had been exploited by ransomware attackers to infect up to 1,500 organizations. The FBI is probing the attack, and Miami-based Kaseya says it s also been working closely with the U.S. Cybersecurity Infrastructure and Security Agency.
After repeatedly pushing back promised delivery dates for patches after the attack that came to light on July 2, Kaseya has now released fixes for the on-premises version of its Virtual System Administrator - aka VSA - software. Kaseya said in a Sunday security advisory that it expects to begin bringing its software-as-a-service version of VSA, which it has also patched, back online incrementally.
