How Interlock Ransomware Gang’s New RAT Slips Through the Cracks

Ransomware operators are exploiting gaps in traditional security detection by leveraging legitimate tools and social engineering tactics. These methods allow threat actors to evade conventional endpoint and network defenses. The Interlock ransomware gang has developed new remote access trojan (RAT) capabilities as part of this evasion strategy.

Why it matters: Security teams need to update detection logic and incident response procedures to catch living-off-the-land attacks and legitimate-tool abuse, as traditional signatures and behavioral rules may miss Interlock's new RAT variants.
