Our CEO Joe Levy sat down with Danny Fortson and Katie Prescott of The Times Tech Podcast to discuss how this malware targets organizations. Crypto-driven ransomware clears a path for cybercriminals to make an anonymous conversion from cryptocurrency to tangible money. But now, with blockchain, there's a public ledger of each transaction. Both small businesses and large enterprises can increase #CryptoSecurity to catch threats. Listen to the full podcast: https://spoti.fi/49ISF0h

Reports of the Akira ransomware group’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. Following a brief disruption to their leak site in October, activity resumed in November with a surge of new victim postings. Sophos X-Ops continues to observe Akira’s operations, with 8 confirmed incidents across our Managed Detection and Response (#MDR) and Incident Response services since the site came back online. Analysis indicates Akira typically delays victim postings by approximately three weeks, with 127 victims disclosed over the past six months. Our research also highlights two active Akira threat clusters, one of which is deploying Fog ransomware alongside Akira’s standard tactics. Their operations frequently involve tools such as network scanners, file compression and transfer software, and remote-access utilities. The evolving #ransomware landscape underscores the importance of continuous monitoring and proactive defense.
