I know someone working at Sony Pictures. She said that Sony Pictures is literally paralyzed. They can't pay their employees and have reverted to completely manual processes. They can't accept orders from customers or pay their vendors as well. The hackers have completely destroyed their infrastructure. There is no real disaster recovery and there are backups of various systems at various levels of conoleteness but presumably those backups are infected as well.
They need to completely rebuild their ERP system from scratch and that will take months.
It's a complete nightmare and if this doesn't change the perceptions of CEOs on cybersecurity, they need to be fired because it complete puts their entire company at risk of they don't put a significant expense to ensure that their company is secure.
