Hello,
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">I hope everyone is doing well!</div>

<div class="ContentPasted0">Below is the entry for today.</div>

<blockquote style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">
<div class="ContentPasted0 ContentPasted1">Last week, on Daily Diary #600, we talked about the leakage of the Lockbit 3.0 builder (the tool responsible for building and configuring Lockbit samples). The tool was published on GitHub by an unsatisfied member
of Lockbit and, as our prediction came true, it already started to be used in the wild.
<div><br class="ContentPasted1">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted1">Early this week, the Bl00Dy Ransomware Gang started to use the recently leaked Lockbit builder in attacks against companies. The Bl00Dy Ransomware Gang started its activities in May this year when it targeted a group of medical and
dental practices in New York.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted1">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted1">During their previous campaigns, the threat actors used to rename all the encrypted files by appending “.bl00dy“ to the files. However, now they are using extensions generated by the builder tool. They customized the ransom note,
with their data and contact information.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted1">
</div>
As we covered in many of our Daily Diaries, Lockbit is one of the most dangerous ransomware groups active nowadays. Therefore, with tools and source code recently leaked – like Conti ransomware – we may expect threat actors to use them in their attacks.<br>
