Using an exploit in an older version of Microsoft SQL Server, cyber attackers successfully deployed ransomware in Dennis Group s network. The building engineering firm used Nasuni s built-in data protection to undo all the unauthorized encryption and restore everything back to an earlier, uninfected state.
The attack occurred on a Friday night in summer 2020 and wasn t discovered until the next morning, when a staff member happened to log on to a work laptop and couldn t access certain files. The intrusion occurred on an old SQL server running legacy SharePoint, and the attackers created admin-level credentials to compromise and spread across Dennis Group s network.
