StopRansomware: Rhysida Ransomware

This Joint Cybersecurity Advisory is part of an ongoing #StopRansomware effort to publish advisories for network defenders detailing various ransomware variants and ransomware threat actors. These #StopRansomware advisories include recently and historically observed tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) and indicators of compromise (IOCs) to help organizations protect against ransomware. Visit stopransomware.gov to see all #StopRansomware advisories and to learn more about other ransomware threats and no-cost resources.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) released this Joint Cybersecurity Advisory to disseminate known Rhysida ransomware IOCs and TTPs identified through investigations as recently as September 2023. Rhysida—an emerging ransomware variant—has predominately been deployed against the education, healthcare, manufacturing, information technology, and government sectors since May 2023. The information in this joint advisory is derived from related incident response investigations and malware analysis of samples discovered on victim networks.
The FBI, CISA, and the MS-ISAC encourage organizations to implement the recommendations in the mitigations section of this advisory to reduce the likelihood and impact of Rhysida ransomware and other ransomware incidents.
