“REvil is increasing ransoms for Kaseya ransomware attack victims” via Lawrence Abrams
“The REvil ransomware gang is increasing the ransom demands for victims encrypted during Friday’s Kaseya ransomware attack.
When conducting an attack against a business, ransomware gangs, such as REvil, typically research a victim by analyzing stolen and public data for financial information, cybersecurity insurance policies, and other information.
Using this information, the number of encrypted devices, and the amount of stolen data, the threat actors will come up with a high-ball ransom demand that they believe, after negotiations, the victim can afford to pay.”
