Stryker is a medical technology company offering everything from surgical robots and implants to operating room lighting and recovery beds and used by over 150 million patients across more than 75 countries.

#Handala has just wiped a lot of their systems including:

* All #Stryker laptops and desktops
* Over 200,000 systems, servers, and mobile devices worldwide
* Employee smartphones and personal devices enrolled in the company’s mobile device management
* Datacenter servers, rendering them inaccessible
* Work profiles on personal phones, particularly those using Outlook or other Stryker apps, which led to complete data loss on those devices
* Internal login and admin pages, which were defaced with the Handala logo

Kevin Beaumont has been tracking Handala for years, and shares their statement on a years long thread about the group here:

This was a proof of concept attack. And it worked.

So, #Handala have been busy bees. They announced that they have control of Verifone’s Retail 360 (R360) payment management environment, at least in Israel.

#Veriphone is denying the attack, but screenshots suggest otherwise. I have documented similar systems, and the screenshots show sudo level access. So, somebody isn’t telling the truth.

My big fear here is that we’re not hearing about the real threats. We’ve known for years that unfriendly actors had access to infrastructure. Verifone and Stryker are bothersome, but not critical. I think these are warning shots and proof of concept, and things are about to get scary.

That gives me HOPE
