Black Basta ransomware gang linked to the FIN7 hacking group

Bill Toulas reports:

Security researchers at Sentinel Labs have uncovered evidence that links the Black Basta ransomware gang to the financially motivated hacking group FIN7, also known as “Carbanak.”

When analyzing tools used by the ransomware gang in attacks, the researchers found signs that a developer for FIN7 has also authored the EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) evasion tools used exclusively by Black Basta since June 2022.
