The U.S. software firm hit by a REvil ransomware attack that crippled hundreds of companies worldwide has failed to bring its services online after discovering an 'issue' that delayed the redeployment. Those customers primarily provide IT services to other companies, and about 800 to 1,500 local and small businesses were compromised, Kaseya said. The Swedish news agency TT said Kaseya technology was used by the Swedish company Visma Esscom, which manages servers and devices for a number of Swedish businesses. Kaseya provides IT services to some 40,000 businesses globally, some of whom in turn manage the computer systems of other businesses. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is still not calling on his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to respond to the massive ransomware attack.
