Shortly after a major international law enforcement takedown, the LockBit ransomware group says that it is back online and has launched a new data leak site complete with "countdown clocks" for its current victims.
The BlackByte ransomware gang's "2.0" reboot of their data leak site sports a new "feature" for its victims: a tiered payment system that allows for smaller payments to delay publication of sensitive data, or to simply download and recover it prior to having it dumped for public viewing.
Since June, some ransomware gangs have begun incorporating search functions into their data leak sites, making stolen data more accessible to put added pressure on victims.
