Rimini Street sees critical ransomware threat bypassing traditional network security controls — Ransomware targets VMware hypervisors

Rimini Street warns that VMware hypervisors have become primary targets for ransomware groups and nation state actors, as attackers increasingly focus on the virtualization layer instead of traditional endpoints or firewalls.

According to the company, this shift exposes organizations to severe Tier 0 disasters that can threaten the entire computing environment. Security experts urge firms to reassess their defenses, emphasizing the need for advanced measures to protect core virtual infrastructures as adversaries adapt their tactics.

Rimini Street previously addressed industry concerns over artificial intelligence disrupting enterprise software, noting that Gartner research expects companies to enhance rather than replace core applications with AI in a recent report. The company has also outlined Oracle’s decision to exclude Agentic AI and cease support for custom EBS code, prompting organizations to revisit technology strategies earlier this year. These developments add context to current warnings about new risks threatening virtualization infrastructure.
