Researchers have found a connection between an affiliate of the RansomHub ransomware group and the deployment of Betruger malware, which is known for stealing information.
Using Betruger could be a tactic to steal data before encrypting it with ransomware, increasing the likelihood of ransom payment.
Organizations should protect against both ransomware and information stealers by using up-to-date security software, being cautious of phishing emails, and regularly updating software.
Attackers likely use common methods like phishing emails or software vulnerabilities to deploy both Betruger and RansomHub.
The link between a ransomware group and an information stealer highlights the increasing complexity of the cyber threat landscape.
