DeadLock ransomware uses blockchain to resist infrastructure takedown
DeadLock ransomware employs blockchain-backed services to establish decentralized infrastructure for victim communications and data-leak operations. This approach resists traditional takedown methods by distributing command and control across a blockchain network rather than relying on centralized servers.
Why it matters: Organizations targeted by DeadLock face a threat actor using resilient infrastructure; security teams should monitor for blockchain-based communication patterns and recognize that standard C2 disruption tactics may prove ineffective.
