Description
A cyberattack targeting Fiscosade Com in Brazil was reported between October 25 and 28, 2022. The incident coincided with a broader wave of cyberattacks across Latin America during that period. Lockbit 3.0, a ransomware group, listed Fiscosade Com among its claimed victims alongside Cooperativa Antonio Vega Granados R.L. in Costa Rica, Sociedad Balbiana in Spain, Macrotel in Argentina, and Happmobi in Brazil. However, Lockbit provided no proof-of-hack evidence (proof packs) to validate its claims, leaving its involvement unverified. Fiscosade Com did not publicly attribute the attack to Lockbit or any other threat actor in its disclosures. No technical details regarding the attack vector, compromised systems, or data exfiltrated from Fiscosade Com were disclosed in available sources.
The incident occurred amid parallel disruptions affecting other regional organizations. Paraguay’s telecommunications provider Personal Paraguay suffered a malicious cyberattack around October 28, causing service disruptions that persisted for several days, though core services remained operational. Chile’s ALMA Observatory halted operations on October 29 following a cyberattack but reported no ransom demand or claiming group. Spain’s Unidad Medica AngloAmericana also experienced a health data breach attributed to Vice Society. Despite Lockbit’s unsubstantiated claims against Fiscosade Com, the absence of confirmed technical details or organizational impact statements limits public understanding of the incident’s scope. Fiscosade Com did not release information regarding containment measures, recovery timelines, or forensic findings based on available evidence.
