BlackByte group has claimed responsibility for a ransomware attack on Augusta, Georgia. The ransomware group has posted 10GB of sample data for free and claimed they have a lot more data available.
“We have lots of sensitive data. Many people would like to see that as well as the media. You were given time to connect us but it seems like you are sleepy,” according to the screenshot shared by security researcher Brett Callow, who is also a threat analyst at Emsisoft.
“We will help you to wake up. Here is a leak of 10GB of your data and very soon there will be much more free to everyone. The clock is ticking,” the ransomware group said.
