The nasty Sodinokibi ransomware which affected a plethora of corporate firms like CyrusOne & Travelex is undertaking dubious tactics to threaten victims. The culprits behind Sodinokibi Ransomware attacks have published stolen data since the victims did not pay the ransom on time.
The developers of GandCrab ransomware variant did release a public statement in December 2019. They stated that stolen data will be leaked if the ransom was not paid on time. The ransomware culprits are using such devious tactics to intimidate victims & blackmail them for ransom.
The miscreants of the nasty ransomware stuck to their statement & posted stolen data on a Russian malware & hacker forum.Links with a size of 337 MB were published, consisting of sensitive files belonging to Artech Information Systems.
Artech Information Systems is a women-owned enterprise. They rank among top IT staffing organisations in the U.S. However, perpetrators of Sodinokibi aren’t fazed by such companies. They threaten to release more data if the ransom is not paid on time.
The devious practice of blackmailing victims by releasing stolen data will soon gain traction. Ransomware developers will surely use this method as a way to extract large ransom amounts & harass the victims. Beware of Sodinokibi Ransomware like attacks by installing a good security product & protect yourself from ransomware.
