Report: FIN6 Shifts From Payment Card Theft to Ransomware

Cybercrime group FIN6 has been stealing credit card data to sell on the darknet to other groups looking to commit fraud. FIN6 is now using LockerGoga or Ryuk, a strain of ransomware that was used against Chicago-based Tribune Publishing. The group is believed to have collected about 20 million payment cards worth $400 million, FireEye reports. The cybercrime group has been less frequently using its original attack method – targeting POS machines, installing malware dubbed Trinity (or FrameworkPOS), moving laterally through the network.”]
