RADAR is a cybercriminal threat actor associated with both initial-access brokerage and ransomware activity. It has been identified as an Initial Access Broker (IAB) that obtains unauthorized access to victim environments and offers that access to other criminal operators, and it has also been named among newly emerged ransomware groups in 2025. Reported activity links RADAR to attacks against the real estate sector and to the sale of remote access into a Swiss company that was later associated with a RansomHub leak-site posting, indicating a role in enabling downstream extortion operations. As an IAB, RADAR fits the broader criminal model in which specialized actors compromise organizations, retain persistence, and monetize access by transferring it to ransomware affiliates or other follow-on operators. This tradecraft commonly involves compromising remote access pathways, obtaining credentials, mapping victim environments, and facilitating later intrusion stages by buyers. The available reporting directly supports RADAR’s involvement in selling remote desktop access and in targeting organizations in the real estate sector. RADAR appears to be financially motivated. Available information supports its role in access monetization and ransomware-linked operations, but does not provide high-confidence attribution to a specific state sponsor or country of origin.
