    The order applies to operators or owners of maritime facilities and vessels regulated by the Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA).

    Thankfully this is not a very active ransomware. However, this means that there is not a large sample size to compare attacks.

    It's also interesting that each victim gets its own Tor Onion address and that the chat system can be different between victims. For example, shows that a CEMIG attack used a Tor payment site identifying themselves as Kitty ransomware.

    Companies and organizations around the world, take the example of how to respond to ransomware groups on leaks and ransom acts.

    Emsisoft's , though, points out that the samples he has seen do not use Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) as compared to DeathRansom.

    Replying to @chrisdoman @BrettCallow @campuscodi
    It does, except for the variants I have seen don't dabble with ECDH IIRC and self-identified themselves as "Kitty Ransomware" on their Tor payment portal. We generally prefer to use the name used by the TAs to make it easier for victims to find information.

    There has been some interest regarding the HelloKitty ransomware since the attack on CDPR. We believe the first reported victim of this ransomware was on November 17th in our forums.

    This is also the third time in a week that a ransomware actor has said "hello dear" to us or we saw it in a chat. There has to be some region that this term is commonly used?
