You’ve been kept in the dark (web): exposing Qilin’s RaaS program

In the wake of increasing ransomware attacks, do security leaders strongly believe that their organisation is secure enough, especially when cyber threats are only growing in sophistication? Group-IB’s Hi-Tech Crime Trends 2022/2023 Report recently revealed that the impact of ransomware attacks will continue to grow in 2023 and beyond, with trends such as the Ransomware-as-a-Service market (RaaS), the publication of stolen data on dedicated leak sites (DLS), and an increase in affiliate programs shaping this trajectory.

Additionally, ransomware strains are proliferating quicker than the improvements in cyber defenses to detect and contain them, rendering organizations underprepared in facing what’s coming. In order to stay ahead, businesses need to stay informed about the most critical cybersecurity threats and threat actors that have recently surfaced and are going strong in the current year and beyond.
