Ekuqaleni kukaLwesibili kuleli sonto iCD Projekt Red kubikiwe ku-tweet ukuthi wayeyisisulu sokuhlaselwa kwe-ransomware okuntshontshe eminye yemininingwane yayo ebalulekile yezokuphepha, kufaka phakathi ikhodi yomthombo. 
Manje sekuqinisekisiwe ukuthi kubaduni benza ngempela ukudayisa enye yemininingwane eyebiwe kumuntu ongaziwa, ngokusobala ngenxa yokwehluleka kwe-CDPR ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zabahlengi. Lolu lwazi luhlinzekwe yinkampani yezokuphepha kwe-cyber uKela, obehlanganyela amazwibela ezingxoxo ku-Exploit, isithangami sabaduni esidumile esivame ukuvikeleka kubaduni. Abasolwa ngobugebengu bathi bathola isipho mayelana nemininingwane eyebiwe kumuntu ongelona ilungu lesithangami se-Exploit. Ngemuva kokuphothula ukuthenga, umthengi ube esecela kubaduni ukuba bavale indali, okwenziwa ngemuva kwalokho.
Ngemuva kokuhlaselwa kwe-cyber, i-CDPR yagcizelela ukuthi ayihambisani nezimfuno zabahlaseli futhi ngeke ixoxisane nabo, yize kube nemiphumela emibi yesinqumo sabo kanye nethuba lokusabalalisa imininingwane eyebiwe kwi-Intanethi. Indali yokuqala, okukholakala ukuthi ifaka ikhodi yomthombo yemidlalo eminingi ye-CDPR kanye nemibhalo yenkampani yangaphakathi, yayingu- $ 1 million, kepha imithombo yezokuphepha kwe-cyber ithi umthengi wayengakhokha imali efinyelela ku- $ 7 million noma ngaphezulu ngemininingwane eyebiwe. Ubunikazi bomthengi abukaziwa okwamanje futhi kusukela ekuthengweni asikaze sibone noma yikuphi ukushicilelwa kwedatha ye-CDPR ku-Intanethi.
Ubunikazi babahlaseli abukadalulwa ngokusemthethweni, yize kungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi abaduni basebenzise i-ransomware HelloKitty, esanda kusetshenziselwa ukugenca amawebhusayithi amaningi.
