Noberus ransomware gets info-stealing upgrades, targets Veeam backup software
Crooks spreading the Noberus ransomware are adding weapons to their malware to steal data and credentials from compromised networks.data exfiltration tool was seen last month being used with Noberus in ransomware infections, and at least one affiliate using Noberus was detected using Eamfo, the info-stealing malware that connects to the SQL database where a victim's Veeam backup software installation stores credentials, according to researchers in Symantec's Threat Hunting Team.
Three members of the gang were collared in 2018, and two years later Coreid switched lanes and launched a RaaS operation that included the notorious Darkside and later BlackMatter ransomware strains.and ALPHV – is the successor to those malware families. Coreid has continuously updated Noberus since it first emerged in November 2021, shortly after BlackMatter was retired in a suspected move by the ransomware gang to stay ahead of law enforcement.
A major update to the code came in June, which included encryption capabilities on Arm systems, and SAFEMODE, which added more encryption functionality to its Windows build.
