Ransomware on the Rise

We are nearly two months into 2024 now and the ransomware attacks around the world have not let up. Most recently a ransomware attack is rumored to have been the cause of a network outage of several government services in Fulton County, Georgia.

Ransomware group ALPHV/BlackCat has continued to make the news with high profile breaches. In November of 2023 they claimed responsibility for an attack on Fidelity National Financial. In an attempt to further combat attacks by the group the United States Department of State has started a tip line and is offering a reward of up to $10 Million USD for information that leads to an arrest involving members of the group. More information can be found on the Department of State website. The Department of State has also set up a file drop server on the TOR network for tips.
