REvil was among the most notorious ransomware crews until international attention and arrests hobbled the group.

A top FBI cyber official says the program encourages people with intimate knowledge of cybercrime to report details to the U.S. government.

Ransomware cases increased 47 percent amid a rise in attacks involving new strains of malware from the LockBit cybercrime syndicate.

As of January 2022, there were more than 1,000 victims of attacks associated with Conti ransomware and payouts exceeding $150 million.

An anonymous researcher shares detailed information on people allegedly involved with some of the most prominent cybercrime groups.

The massive trove of leaked messages and other data offer a deep look at the Russian cybercrime ecosystem.

The suspected Conti ransomware group spinoff employs a variety of attack methods, the notice warns.

The claim comes after Conti doubled its extortion demand to $20 million and called for the overthrow of the government.

A Conti affiliate claimed responsibility and has posted more than 672 GB of data so far.

Links in tooling, crypto wallets and even attacking victims simultaneously strongly suggest a link, researchers say.
