Introduction
Babuk ransomware is a new ransomware threat discovered in 2021 that attacked at least five big enterprises, with one already paying the criminals $85,000 after negotiations. This ransomware, as other variants, is deployed in the network of enterprises that the criminals carefully target and compromise. This modus operandi is known as the Big-Game hunting strategy.
The group behind Babuk has also adopted the same strategies as other ransomware groups and has leaked the stolen data.
