Ransomware has continually expanded both in terms of threat and reach as threat actors continue to devise fresh methods of introducing new ransomware variants and malware families. One such newly emerged ransomware that was first identified at the end of February 2020, Nefilim, threatens to release victims’ encrypted data if they are unable to pay the ransom. With a striking code resemblance to that of Nemty 2.5 revenge ransomware, Nefilim is most likely to be distributed via exposed Remote Desktop Protocol, according to Vitali Kremez, an ethical hacker at SentinelLabs.
