New Report on Doxxing Exposes Cybersecurity Threat Actors Trends
A new threat intelligence report on doxxing, researched by cybersecurity experts at Kivu, reveals that the majority of attacks occur in the U.S., with companies in the consumer sector being more likely to fall victim to such an attack.
Doxxing is the deliberate and malicious leaking of stolen data that happens once a ransomware attack has been deployed, says Kivu. Kivu, a cybersecurity solutions provider, has documented the active doxxing efforts of eight ransomware groups: Maze, REvil, DoppelPaymer, CL0P, Nephilim, Sekhmet, Mespinoza (PYSA) and RagnarLocker. A full breakdown of ransomware variant targets can be found in the report.
