Scope Note

ZeroFox Intelligence is derived from a variety of sources, including—but not limited to—curated open-source accesses, vetted social media, proprietary data sources, and direct access to threat actors and groups through covert communication channels. Information relied upon to complete any report cannot always be independently verified. As such, ZeroFox applies rigorous analytic standards and tradecraft in accordance with best practices and includes caveat language and source citations to clearly identify the veracity of our Intelligence reporting and substantiate our assessments and recommendations. All sources used in this particular Intelligence product were identified prior to 2:00 PM (EDT) on May 13, 2022; per cyber hygiene best practices, caution is advised when clicking on any third-party links.

Key Findings

  • Updated samples indicate REvil or someone close to the group has resumed operations.
  • REvil joins a growing list of ransom families requiring predetermined command line arguments to function.
  • REvil no longer refuses to run based on an infected systems’ language.
  • An unused configuration element introduced previously is now populated with credentials.
