Caesars Entertainment Reveals Major Ransomware Breach

Yet another Nevadan casino and hotel chain giant has been compromised by ransomware threat actors, after Caesars Entertainment reported a serious incident to the SEC. The Reno-headquartered gaming and hospitality firm, which generates annual revenues in excess of $3bn, said in the filing yesterday that it recently discovered suspicious activity “resulting from a social engineering attack on an outsourced IT support vendor.” The firm subsequently activated its incident response protocols and notified the relevant authorities.
