OAKDELLCOM Targeted by Clop Ransomware Group
OAKDELLCOM, a local, family-owned egg farm founded more than a century ago in Cache Valley, Utah, has been targeted by the ransomware group Clop.

Company Overview
OAKDELLCOM is a significant player in the agriculture sector, focusing on the production of high-quality eggs. The company's commitment to providing natural, unprocessed protein sources makes it a standout in the industry. However, this success has also made it a target for cybercriminals.
Vulnerabilities and Mitigation
The specific vulnerabilities that led to the successful attack on OAKDELLCOM are not publicly disclosed. However, ransomware attacks often exploit weaknesses in outdated software, unpatched systems, or weak passwords. To mitigate such risks, companies should regularly update their software, implement strong password policies, and invest in cybersecurity training for their employees.
The attack on OAKDELLCOM serves as a reminder that no organization is immune to cyber threats. As the agriculture sector continues to digitize, it is crucial for companies to prioritize cybersecurity to protect their operations and reputation.

Recent Ransomware Attacks
The Recent Ransomware Attacks (RRA) site acts as a watchtower, providing you with near real-time ransomware tracking of attacks, groups and their victims. Given threat actors’ overarching, lucrative success so far, ransomware attacks have become the most ubiquitous, and financially and informationally impactful cyber threat to businesses and organizations today.
The site’s data is generated based on hosting choices of real-world threat actors, and a handful of other trackers. While sanitization efforts have been taken, we cannot guarantee 100% accuracy of the data. Attack updates will be made as source data is reported by reputable sources. By viewing, accessing, or using RRA you acknowledge you are doing so at your own risk.
