The U.S. State Department’s Rewards for Justice program has decided to go after Clop who are the people behind ransomware attacks via the MOVEit vulnerability. The news was posted on Twitter:
This is bad news for these threat actors because Rewards of Justice is a U.S. Department of State program that offers monetary rewards for information on threat actors and attacks impacting the national security of the USA. So that means that the US Government really wants to get these guys because they’ve been launching attacks over the last two weeks or so, and they’re getting a lot of press because of it. Which means that law enforcement will be spending a lot of time and a lot of effort trying to catch these threat actors. Let’s see how much of an incentive this is to rat these guys out.
