In this video, we will be focusing on the DarkBit ransomware that has emerged in early 2023 and heavily targets educational institutions in Israel.
DarkBit ransomware is claimed to be politically motivated and is against racism, fascism, and apartheid. It is written in Golang and supports multiple command-line arguments, giving attackers granular control over how and what is encrypted. Encrypted files are marked with a .Darkbit extension.
