Normally, I don’t have a lot to say, unless its a big time story, and this I can’t believe. Yesterday, I found an article titled
yet the company who is very good at its work says “no” to their claims.
I’m not saying for one minute that Lockbit is good, they aren’t. Lockbit has been around for many years and the article talks about this. But the claims which the company hacked said no to is quite funny.
Maybe this company who runs lock bit will think twice, or maybe not, we can only hope.
A prominent ransomware group claimed Monday it has successfully attacked cybersecurity giant Mandiant, and will release company files.
Continuing: The second paragraph says:
LockBit 2.0 — a ransomware-as-a-service variant that can claim thousands of victims around the world since it was first spotted as ABCD ransomware in September 2019 — posted a notice to its dark web portal Monday claiming it would release Mandiant files late Monday. There is no ransom demand posted to the page.
The fact there is no ransom and the fact that Mandian does their own research and found nothing calls this group a liar. I hope that something is done with these guys, now that they have lied about something they didn’t do. The article has more.
