Interview with Hardbit Ransomware, a new group with great ambitions

Posted on October 13, 2022 by Dissent

Marco A. DeFelice (@amvinfe) interviewed a relatively new ransomware group called “Hardbit.”   At one point in the interview, the exchange went:

SF – Do you have a specific target regarding the victims? Do you pay more attention to a particular sector such as education, health, construction or is a victim “just a business” for you?

(Support): It’s just a business.

We do not attack places like hospitals, schools and universities. But if they are attacked, if they can prove it, they will be decrypted for free.
