 HHS issues advisory on "Clop" strain of ransomware.  Spring is in the air, and as regularly as the seasons changing, there's a new varietal of ransomware.  This one is from a Russian group calling itself "Clop," which exploits a flaw in GoAnywhere.  HHS and HSCCC have issued an alert.  One thing that sets Clop apart is that it specifically targets the healthcare sector.

The usual defensive tactics apply: train your staff to avoid phishing, patch your software, manage your fenceline, backup your data, have your system mapped, use DLP, and put alarms on traffic flows.
