Discover essential strategies to safeguard your organization against the sophisticated Interlock ransomware. Learn how to implement proactive measures and secure your critical infrastructure today.

Understanding the Interlock Ransomware Threat

Interlock ransomware, first identified in September 2024, has rapidly gained attention due to its sophisticated attack methods. Unlike traditional ransomware, it uses drive-by download techniques, exploiting legitimate websites to deliver malicious payloads disguised as browser or security software updates. The attackers employ social engineering tactics, such as ClickFix and FileFix, to deceive users into executing harmful code. Interlock’s double extortion model poses a significant threat, as it encrypts data and exfiltrates sensitive information, targeting critical sectors like healthcare and manufacturing.

Interlock ransomware represents a new wave of cyber threats with its unique approach to infiltrating systems. By exploiting compromised websites and using deceptive tactics, it bypasses conventional defenses. The ransomware not only encrypts files but also threatens data leaks, pressuring victims to pay ransoms. Its ability to target virtual machines on both Windows and Linux platforms makes it a formidable adversary, necessitating advanced security measures to protect vulnerable infrastructures.  You can read the public service announcement here from CISA.
