The New York branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) experienced a cyberattack involving Lockbit 3.0 ransomware, which disrupted the U.S. Treasury market. The attack exploited vulnerabilities in Citrix-managed services, previously flagged by U.S. officials. ICBC's Financial Services unit, significant in the Treasury market, had to disconnect from the market and manually clear trades. The FBI, DHS, and CISA had warned about such vulnerabilities and ransomware risks earlier.
