RansomHub Strikes Gold: Christie’s Auction House Grapples with Pricey Cyber Heist Before Big Sale

Facing ransomware’s wrath, Christie’s was forced to improvise a new auction stage as RansomHub hackers played the villain, snagging customer secrets faster than a gavel slam.

Hot Take:

Well, isn't this a Monet moment for Christie's—except instead of impressionist art, it's an impression of your data in some cybercriminal's grubby hands. It's like a modern-day heist movie, but everyone's wearing hoodies and typing furiously instead of donning black turtlenecks and whispering dramatically into walkie-talkies. And just when you thought ransomware was so 2020, RansomHub waltzes in with all the subtlety of a Jackson Pollock splatter—claiming to hold both art and data hostage. Oh, the irony!
