RansomHouse Ransomware Group
The ‘RansomHouse’ group is a data-extortion cybercrime operation that emerged in December 2021. Unlike traditional ransomware groups, RansomHouse claims not to use ransomware and instead focuses on breaching networks through their own tools. The group employs a double-extortion model, exfiltrating data and threatening to publish it if ransom demands are not met. RansomHouse has been associated with high-profile attacks, with victims listed on its data leak site, and has targeted various organizations, including a German airline support service provider and Canada’s Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA).
