ProLock is a relatively new malware on the ransomware scene but has quickly attracted attention by targeting businesses and local governments and demanding huge ransoms for file decryption.

Its most recent victim is Diebold Nixdorf, mostly known for providing automated teller machines (ATMs).

This attack was caught before the encryption stage and did not impact these systems; it did cause some disruptions as it affected the corporate network.
