ComputerWeekly, Thursday, October 10th, 2024
Threat intel specialists at Recorded Future have shared details of newly developed techniques they are using to disrupt Rhysida ransomware attacks before the gang even has a chance to execute them
Threat intelligence specialist Recorded Future has revealed details of how it is now able to find - and alert - future victims of the Rhysida ransomware gang before it has a chance to deploy its ransomware locker.
Rhysida, perhaps most famous in the UK for the late-2023 attack on the British Library, has been active since around January 2023 and operates a standard double extortion, ransomware-as-a-service operation. It operates in diverse sectors, although it seems to have favoured targeting education and healthcare organisations.
