ransomware

Emerging Threat Actor: Interlock Ransomware

Interlock is an emerging ransomware group whose operational tactics, tools, and focus on disrupting victim recovery processes closely resemble established threat actors like BlackCat/ALPHV and LockBit. The group appears to be following established ransomware patterns from more established operations.

Why it matters: Organizations need to understand Interlock's operational tactics now because the group's similarity to known ransomware operations suggests it may adopt proven attack chains and extortion methods, requiring updated detection and response playbooks.
