In February 2021, AllCargo Logistics (ECU Worldwide), an India-based logistics firm, fell victim to a Mount Locker ransomware attack that severely disrupted its operations. The cybercriminals, driven by financial motives, encrypted critical systems and stole approximately 2 terabytes of sensitive data, crippling internal and external communications. The attack rendered the company’s email systems inoperable, halting business-critical exchanges and causing significant operational downtime.The ransomware gang employed advanced tactics to infiltrate the network, exfiltrate data, and deploy encryption, leaving the organization in a state of systemic paralysis. The stolen data likely included proprietary logistics information, financial records, and possibly customer or employee details, though the exact nature of the compromised data was not publicly disclosed. The attack forced AllCargo to shut down affected systems to contain the breach, leading to service disruptions, financial losses, and reputational damage. The incident underscored the growing threat of double-extortion ransomware, where attackers not only encrypt data but also threaten to leak it unless a ransom is paid.
