Intelligence Summary
The Gentlemen ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) program is expanding its ability to disable endpoint defenses. It distributes a set of EDR-impairing tools to affiliates before they deploy the ransomware encryptor. The tooling is built around a framework called GentleKiller. The malware selectively targets and disrupts hundreds of security-related processes to weaken protection. Organizations should review endpoint monitoring and harden defenses against EDR tampering and process-killing behavior.
Recommended Action
Review affected assets, schedule urgent remediation, and monitor related indicators.
