It has been mostly a quiet week regarding ransomware, with only a few bits of info released on older attacks and some reports released on existing organizations.
This week, theft of customer data remains the focus, with Yum! Brands sending data breach notifications for a ransomware attack in January.
Capita also remains silent on a Black Basta ransomware attack that occurred earlier this month, staying silent as to whether customer data was stolen, even as the ransomware gang attempts to extort them.
Other news this week revolves around research released about particular operations, including:
- DarkAngels ransomware launched a data leak site.
- Vice Society now uses a custom PowerShell script for data exfiltration.
- A technical analysis of Trigona, which BleepingComputer first reported on in 2022.
- Information on the new Kadavro Vector Ransomware.
Finally, we saw LockBit messing around with cybersecurity companies, claiming to have breached DarkTrace. However, the company said this is untrue and that systems were compromised.
