The Invima server suffered a cyber attack by a computer virus known as blackbyte, which hijacks data for extortion purposes.
This affected the issuance of export and import certificates and the single window for foreign trade, among other services.
BlackByte encrypts files, no matter where they are, so they cannot be read.
It is ransomware software as a service (RaaS) that encrypts files on vulnerable Windows servers, regardless of whether they are physical or in the cloud.
It is a program that hijacks information from a server and does not release it unless a ransom is paid.
