华盛顿当前位置受勒索软件攻击的IT公司Kaseya周日表示，它聘请了一家网络安全公司FireEye公司帮助处理影响全球数百家企业的重大泄露事件的后果。
总部位于迈阿密的Kaseya在其网站上发布的一条消息中表示，其员工“一直积极参与FireEye以及其他安全评估公司”，以调查这起发生在周五的袭击，并迅速蔓延到全球。
火眼向路透社证实，它正在与Kaseya合作。
入侵Kaseya的全面影响仍在受到关注，部分原因是受影响的Kaseya软件工具由所谓的托管服务提供商(managed service provider)使用，也就是其他企业用来处理安装更新等后台IT工作的外包商店。
周六，瑞典食品杂货连锁店Coop不得不关闭数百家门店，因为其收银机由Visma Esscom运营，后者为多家瑞典企业管理服务器，转而使用Kaseya。
一名网络安全高管表示，仅他的公司就有350名客户受到攻击。
“我们看到的两个最大的地区是美国Sophos集团首席信息安全官Ross McKerchar说
他说，目标包括学校、小型公共部门机构、旅游和休闲组织、信用合作社和会计师。
麦克尔查尔表示，这波入侵浪潮再次说明，规模较小的企业要击退资金日益雄厚的网络犯罪团伙是多么困难。
“在网络安全方面，小企业处于劣势，”他说。

WASHINGTON<\/a>: Ransomware-hit IT firm Kaseya said on Sunday it hired cybersecurity company FireEye Inc<\/a> to help deal with the fallout of a major breach that has affected hundreds of businesses worldwide.
In a message posted to its website, Miami-based Kaseya said its employees \"have been actively engaged with FireEye<\/a> and other security assessment firms\" to investigate the attack, which struck on Friday and quickly spread across the globe.
WASHINGTON<\/a>: Ransomware-hit IT firm Kaseya said on Sunday it hired cybersecurity company FireEye Inc<\/a> to help deal with the fallout of a major breach that has affected hundreds of businesses worldwide.
In a message posted to its website, Miami-based Kaseya said its employees \"have been actively engaged with FireEye<\/a> and other security assessment firms\" to investigate the attack, which struck on Friday and quickly spread across the globe.
<\/div><\/div>FireEye confirmed to Reuters it was working with Kaseya.
The full impact of the intrusion at Kaseya is still coming into focus, in part because the affected Kaseya software tool is used by so-called managed service providers, outsourcing shops that other businesses use to handle their back-office IT work, like installing updates.
The Swedish Coop grocery store chain had to close hundreds of stores on Saturday because its cash registers are run by Visma Esscom, which manages servers for a number of Swedish businesses and in turn uses Kaseya.
One cybersecurity executive said his company alone had seen 350 customers attacked.
\"The two biggest regions we've seen are USA<\/a> and Germany,\" said Ross McKerchar, chief information security officer at Sophos Group Plc
Targets included schools, small public-sector bodies, travel and leisure organizations, credit unions and accountants, he said.
McKerchar said the wave of intrusions was another illustration of how difficult it was for modestly sized businesses to beat back increasingly well-funded cybercriminal gangs.
\"Small businesses are outgunned when it comes to cybersecurity,\" he said.
