Sanctions Ransomware was released in March. The developer is selling the decryption key for 6 bitcoins. This equates to about $6,500 USD at bitcoin’s current rate. This is a very large ransom payment and due to the fact that this is not in wide circulation, it leads me to believe that this ransomware developer may be conducting targeted attacks. At some point we will find a sample of the actual ransomware and be able to provide more information as we further analyze this ransomware.
