One of the most prolific ransomware groups in recent times, LockBit ransomware began its spree of attacks as recently as September 2019. The group is financially motivated and does not shy away from going after bigger, high-profile enterprises and companies. Their latest attack weapon is the CitrixBleed vulnerability (CVE-2023-4966) using which the group waged attacks on Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), DP World, Allen & Overy, and Boeing, among many others.<\/span><\/p>

LockBit is known for many of its unique characteristics – sophisticated technology, extortion methods, and high-severity cyber attacks. The group is backed by hundreds of affiliates who take care of the \u2018breakin in\u2019 phase, aka,\u00a0 infiltration into vulnerable networks. Thereon, LockBit operators depend on their ransomware code, which has today become one of the best for stealthily creeping through networks, before adopting multiple effective extortion strategies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

LockBit\u2019s attack presence is seen globally, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States.\u00a0 Intermittently, the attack spree pauses for a brief period during which their ransomware technology receives superior upgrades, ready to combat advancements in a company\u2019s defense. Their recent attack strategy and frequency makes LockBit a formidable predator in the cyber realm and a determined adversary.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
