Symantec: Ransomware: Threat Level Remains High in Third Quarter
RansomHub group is now the most prolific ransomware group, overtaking LockBit in the third quarter of this year (July through September). Symantec notes that the international law enforcement actions against LockBit ransomware infrastructure set back their operations and likely led to affiliates switching to other Ransomware-as-a-Service groups. The overall number of attacks is trending upwards even with a small decline from the second quarter. Symantec highlights the use of "dual-use" tools deployed or utilized malicious in ransomware attacks: Living off the Land utilities, Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOD), remote monitoring and management tools (RMM), and tools like Rclone for data exfiltration. No IOC in this post.
