Hi FortiGuard Fuse Members,
I have a customer who recently reached out to me to inquire about the latest variant of CryptoWall (4.0). I know we recently released an article around our detection with CryptoWall 3.0, but is there any updated information regarding CryptoWall 4.0?
Here is some literature I found on the subject:

My customer is currently protected by a FortiGate (not inspecting SSL), FortiMail and FortiSandbox. Is there any reassurance I can give him on our abilities to detect and mitigate this threat?
Thanks!
