Deep dives
Cyber attacks on MGM and Caesars casinos
MGM and Caesars casinos have been targeted by cyber attacks. One hacking group, Scattered Spider, used social engineering to gain access to Caesars' system and forced them to pay a $15 million ransom. Another group, known as A L P H B or Black Cat, was responsible for attacking MGM and released 2.5 terabytes of stolen data. While Scattered Spider focused on financial gain, Black Cat seems to have a more edge-filled agenda, criticizing MGM's corruption and incompetence. The attacks highlight the need for strong cybersecurity measures and caution around social engineering.
