Ransomware and Cyber Vaccines
Threat actors are constantly working towards finding new and complex ways to deploy cyber-attacks. The affiliates behind Dridex initially used it as a means to steal banking and personal credentials.
However, in order to adapt in the changing cybercrime landscape, the threat actors evolved and developed BitPaymer Ransomware, which uses Dridex for the new purpose of moving laterally and proliferating within a network. Thus, increasing the level of disturbances and attacks on organizations leading to loss of data, assets, and reputation.
Ransom demands ask for seven-figure payments, and it is never a guarantee that data will be returned after payment. Just this past summer, malware analysts found a new evolution of BitPaymer ransomware, called DoppelPaymer. This version of the ransomware campaign, although it looks very similar, is far more complex than BitPaymer.
In response to this incident, LIFARS Incident Response Team created a custom Cyber Vaccine to remove the Dridex infection. This vaccine finds maliciously injected thread and removes all malicious Dridex artifacts.
To learn more about, DEDRI and to download the vaccine go to our GitHub.
