Two new extortion gangs named 'TommyLeaks' and 'SchoolBoys' are targeting companies worldwide. However, there is a catch — they are both the same ransomware gang.
Vice Society is a little-known double extortion group that exfiltrates its victims' data and threatens its victims to leak their information.
The LockBit ransomware operation has released 'LockBit 3.0,' introducing the first ransomware bug bounty program and leaking new extortion tactics and Zcash cryptocurrency payment options.
The activity we have observed has been attributed to a threat group that Microsoft tracks as DEV-0537, also known as LAPSUS$. DEV-0537 is known for using a pure extortion and destruction model without deploying ransomware payloads.
The Lapsus$ hacking group claims to have leaked the source code for Bing, Cortana, and other projects stolen from Microsoft's internal Azure DevOps server.
