Medusa Rides Momentum From #Ransomware-as-a-Service Pivot. Shifting to a #RaaS business model has accelerated the group's growth, and targeting critical industries like healthcare, legal, and manufacturing hasn't hurt either.

#ESETresearch discovered previously unknown links between the #RansomHub, #Medusa, #BianLian, and #Play ransomware gangs, and leveraged #EDRKillShifter to learn more about RansomHub’s affiliates. @SCrow357 https://www.welivesecurity.com/en/eset-research/shifting-sands-ransomhub-edrkillshifter/
RansomHub emerged in February 2024 and in just three months reached the top of the ransomware ladder, recruiting affiliates from disrupted #LockBit and #BlackCat. Since then, it dominated the ransomware world, showing similar growth as LockBit once did.
Previously linked to North Korea-aligned group #Andariel, Play strictly denies operating as #RaaS. We found its members utilized RansomHub’s EDR killer EDRKillShifter, multiple times during their intrusions, meaning some members likely became RansomHub affiliates.
BianLian focuses on extortion-only attacks and does not publicly recruit new affiliates. Its access to EDRKillShifter suggests a similar approach as Play – having trusted members, who are not limited to working only with them.
Medusa, same as RansomHub, is a typical RaaS gang, actively recruiting new affiliates. Since it is common knowledge that affiliates of such RaaS groups often work for multiple operators, this connection is to be expected.
Our blogpost also emphasizes the growing threat of EDR killers. We observed an increase in the number of such tools, while the set of abused drivers remains quite small. Gangs such as RansomHub and #Embargo offer their killers as part of the affiliate program.

A massive leak of internal chat logs from the notorious Black Basta ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) group has exposed potential ties to Russian authorities, extensive use of artificial intelligence in its operations and plans for a complete rebranding.
Dragon RaaS | Pro-Russian Hacktivist Group Aims to Build on "The Five Families" Cybercrime Reputation
Dragon RaaS is a ransomware group that emerged in July 2024 as an offshoot of Stormous, part of a larger cybercrime syndicate known as 'The Five Families'. The group markets itself as a sophisticated Ransomware-as-a-Service operation but often conducts defacements and opportunistic attacks rather than large-scale ransomware extortion. Dragon RaaS primarily targets organizations in the US, Israel, UK, France, and Germany, exploiting vulnerabilities in web applications, using brute-force attacks, and leveraging stolen credentials. The group operates two ransomware strains: a Windows-focused encryptor based on StormCry and a PHP webshell. Despite claims of creating a unique ransomware variant, analysis reveals that Dragon RaaS's payloads are slightly modified versions of StormCry.

Analysts had understandably described DISPOSSESSOR as a data broker rather than a ransomware group, but it seems that they have recently teamed up with RADAR and have shifted to a R-a-a-S model while still doing some sales for others.
