Does your organization have robust defenses against the evolving Akira ransomware threat?
In a new joint cybersecurity advisory, authorities from the U.S., Europe, and the Netherlands detail the latest tactics used by the prolific Akira ransomware gang. This Russian cybercrime operation has already impacted over 250 organizations and raked in $42 million in ransom payments.
Akira employs a double-extortion model of data theft and encryption, deploying multiple ransomware variants like Akira, Megazord, and the new Akira_v2 strain. Their arsenal includes sophisticated tools for lateral movement, credential theft, and hybrid encryption schemes.
