A ransomware group targets an OEM’s connected vehicle fleet, encrypting critical telematics systems and immobilizing vehicles. Attackers demanded payment to restore functionality, threatening operational paralysis and data leaks.
Ransomware with anomaly detection and reporting to VSOC
The OEM’s vehicle security operations center (VSOC) leverages its AI-driven XDR platform to detect anomalies. The system identifies unusual data encryption patterns and unauthorized command executions across hundreds of vehicles. Contextual threat intelligence correlated with telemetry information of known ransomware TTPs, triggering high-fidelity alerts for analysts.
VSOC analysts execute relevant playbooks:
- Isolate compromised vehicles via remote commands, halting lateral movement.
- Deploy countermeasures to terminate malicious processes and block attacker servers.
- Initiate recovery: restore encrypted systems from secure cloud backups.
The attack is neutralized within the hour, and no ransom is paid. Real-time monitoring preempts fleet-wide encryption. The XDR platform auto-generates a forensic report for UN R155 compliance, detailing attack vectors and mitigation efficacy.
