Crypto-locker
"crypto_locker" is referenced in the provided content only as a purportedly new crypto-locker that the pro-Russian hacktivist group TwoNet offered to sell on Telegram. Forescout researchers assessed that this sales pitch appeared to be a scam. No verified technical details are provided about the malware’s functionality, platform, infection vector, behavior, persistence, encryption routine, ransom mechanism, or indicators of compromise. The only high-confidence association in the content is that it was advertised by TwoNet during the group’s broader activity around DDoS interests and attempted intrusions into HMI/SCADA environments and critical infrastructure in so-called enemy countries.
