Ryuk Ransomware Updated With ‘Worm-Like Capabilities’

Ransomware can spread automatically within networks it infects, CERT-FR says. The French government’s computer emergency readiness team issued a Ryuk report Thursday. The report says a sample with worm-like capabilities was discovered during an incident response in early 2021. It’s a type of human-operated ransomware, meaning attackers manually conduct reconnaissance of a system, drop malicious executables and trigger them. The Ryuk operation is notable for the scale of both its attacks and profits, the French government says.”]
