Conti is a ransomware-as-a-service program and is one of the most prolific ransomwares of the past year.
In what is believed to have been an act of revenge, an apparent insider leaked months of Conti’s internal chat logs, revealing amazing information.
The leaked chats provide victim details, source code, and even playbooks with instructions to check for vulnerabilities such as “PrintNightmare”, “EternalBlue”, and “Zerologon”.
The leaked information also gave us a behind-the-scenes look at the Conti gang’s day-to-day operations, showing that they work just like a regular company with an HR department, salaried workers with a choice of office-based, hybrid or remote work, bonuses, performance reviews, and even “employees of the month”.
This May, reports of the Conti gang shutting down surfaced, but that doesn’t mean Conti ransomware is no longer dangerous. Check out Cyberbit’s Conti Ransomware Spotlight to review its attack flow or try some of our hands-on labs to learn Conti’s initial vectors.
