저희도 다음과 같이 보고했음을 알려드립니다. Experts Analyzed a New Sample of Malware and Confirmed the 악마 Return.

According to an official statement from the US State Department, Conti is considered one of the most “profitable” ransomware of recent times: it has now attacked more than 1,000 victims, who in total paid ransoms worth more than $ 150 million to hackers.

Let me remind you that Conti is one of the most active groups operating under the Ransomware-as-a-Service scheme (“ransomware-as-a-service”, RaaS). Experts associate it with the Russian-speaking group 마법사 거미 (also known for other malware, 포함 Ryuk, 트릭봇 과 BazarLoader).

Costa Rica has become one of the latest victims of Conti: at the end of last week, the newly elected president of the country, Rodrigo Chavez, was forced to declare a state of emergency due to Conti’s attack on a number of government agencies.

블 리핑 컴퓨터 reported that a 672 GB dump was published on the “leak site” 콘티, allegedly containing information stolen from government agencies in Costa Rica.

The hack appears to have affected at least the Treasury Department, which has yet to fully assessed the scope of the incident and its impact on taxpayer data, payments, and customs systems. According to media reports, the hackers demanded a $10 million ransom from the Treasury, but the government refused to pay. 동시에, almost all digital services of the Ministry of Finance of Costa Rica have been unavailable since April 18.

The Conti website also lists the following departments allegedly affected by the attack:

1. Ministry of Finance of Costa Rica (Ministryio de Hacienda);
2. Ministry of Labor and Social Security (MTSS);
3. Social Development and Family Allowance Fund (FODESAF);
4. Intercollegiate Headquarters of Alajuela (SIUA).

According to media reports, other departments and organizations of the country also suffered from the large-scale Conti attack, 포함:

1. Administrative Council of the Electrical Service of the Province of Cartago (Jasec);
2. Ministry of Science, Innovation, Technology and Communications;
3. National Meteorological Institute (IMN);
4. Radiographic Costarricense (RACSA);
5. Costa Rican Social Security Fund (CCSS).
