A joint advisory from CISA and the FBI, issued on October 22, says the SafePay ransomware gang has compromised at least 600 organizations since August 2024\. According to the advisory as summarized in CM Alliance's October roundup, the group uses double extortion, which means it steals data before encrypting systems and then threatens to leak it if the ransom is not paid. That tactic puts pressure on victims even when they can restore from backups. Standard defenses still apply, including offline backups, quick patching of internet facing systems, and phishing resistant multifactor authentication.
