"A well-known ransomware group claimed responsibility for a cyberattack that wreaked havoc on operations at MGM Resorts, one of the world’s largest casino-hotel chains, according to a post from malware research group VX-Underground. ALPHV, also known as BlackCat, claimed it executed the attack by identifying an MGM employee on LinkedIn who worked in IT support, and simply calling the MGM help desk. Astonishingly, the attack took about 10 minutes to execute."
