AzzaSec Ransomware is a RaaS (Ransomware as a Service) developed by the AzzaSec Hacktivist Group. This malware can also be used by the group to attack targeted systems. The ransomware was developed by threat actors using aliases "WalterBishop_AzzaSec" and "NoCry/Dmitry.Ransom" under the leadership of AzzaSec Group Leader "Friendied."
Key findings include:
- AzzaSec ransomware is dangerous because it is particularly FUD (Fully UnDetectable) and is used by a group.
- Two different infection scenarios have been identified in the ransomware infection process.
- It has been found that they use a PDF dropper in the infection process, which downloads and executes AzzaSec Ransomware on the system, avoiding detection by many security software products.
- AzzaSec Ransomware has Anti-VM/Anti-Hosting/Anti-Sandboxing/Anti-Debugger features.
- To maintain persistence on the system, AzzaSec Ransomware moves itself to the Startup directory. The ransomware becomes active repeatedly during each Windows login process.
