"A threat group named Handala has taken credit for the attack, claiming to have wiped more than 200,000 devices (including phones) and forcing Stryker to shut down offices in dozens of countries. The hackers also claimed to have stolen 50TB of data from the medtech giant's systems."
"While some initial media reports said wiper malware was used in the attack, new evidence indicates that the hackers used living-off-the-land techniques to remotely wipe systems."
Stryker, a $25 billion medical technology company, experienced significant disruption from an Iran-linked cyberattack targeting its Microsoft environment. The attack disrupted order processing, manufacturing, and shipping globally. The threat group Handala claimed responsibility, stating they wiped over 200,000 devices and stole 50TB of data. Evidence indicates attackers used living-off-the-land techniques for system wiping rather than traditional wiper malware. Staff in multiple countries, including Stryker's largest hub in Ireland, were sent home. The company implemented business continuity measures to support customers and partners while working to restore systems.
