Intelligence Summary
Researchers say the INC ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation has grown into a major threat. The group claims more than 830 victims since August 2023. Growth is attributed to affiliate migration after LockBit disruption and BlackCat shutdown. This increases the likelihood of more varied intrusion paths and faster victim targeting. Organizations should review ransomware detection and response controls, and verify backups and incident playbooks are resilient.
Recommended Action
Prioritize immediate review, validate exposure, and patch or mitigate affected systems.
