Russian cloud firm Beget rebuilds from scratch after data wiper attack

Russian cloud provider Beget says a data-wiping attack on the night of November 1 gave an attacker access to the management systems of its entire architecture and erased server data, forcing it to rebuild its cloud infrastructure from scratch. More than a week later, Beget says 60% of shared hosting and 40% of dedicated servers have been restored, all cloud data including VPS, S3 and Kubernetes was lost, and VPS file backups will be available for only about half of its VPS users.
