Kaseya Ransomware Attack: REvil Gang Demands Over Rs 500 Crore as Payout, Says Report
The REvil ransomware gang that hit IT software provider Kaseya VSA with a crippling supply chain ransomware attack on Friday, July 2, has now published a blanket ransom payout demand on its dark web site, the notorious Happy Blog. According to the post, the REvil gang, also known as Sodinokibi, has asked for a payout of $70 million, or about Rs 520 crore, in order to unlock what it claims to be “more than a million systems.” The ransom demand comes two days after news broke about the attack, which initially suspected at least a few hundred small and medium sized companies to be affected as a result of the attack. The companies were largely using outsourced IT services from Managed Service Providers (MSPs), which in turn were using software provided by Kaseya VSA.
