The Government of Peru denied having paid 5 BTC (about 473 thousand dollars) to cybercriminals following an alleged ransomware attack attributed to the Rhysida group. The cybersecurity company, VenariX, had warned about a possible data breach of the Secretariat of Government and Digital Transformation. However, authorities stated that there was no security breach and that the official platform www.gob.pe was not compromised, attributing the reports to a user access error.
