Hot Take:

Well, well, well, if it isn't our old friend AvosLocker making the headlines again. This time they've been fingered by the FBI and CISA for launching ransomware attacks against the critical infrastructure sectors of Uncle Sam's domain. The audacity! The cheek! These uninvited guests sneak in using legit software and open-source system administration tools, then threaten to air out all their stolen laundry. They've even got a fancy new tool, NetMonitor.exe, that pretends to be a network monitoring tool but is actually a reverse proxy. It's like a wolf in sheep's clothing, but far less fluffy and much more malicious.
