Description

This analysis examines the emergence of DeathGrip, a Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) operation that provides threat actors with easy access to sophisticated ransomware builders like LockBit 3.0 and Yashma/Chaos. The accessibility of these tools enables even those with minimal technical skills to launch fully-developed ransomware attacks, posing a significant threat as the barrier to entry for extortion-focused cybercriminals continues to diminish. The proliferation of these tools contributes to the ongoing commoditization of ransomware across various capability levels.
