DragonForce expands ransomware model with white-label branding scheme www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…

The ransomware scene is re-organizing, with one gang known as DragonForce working to gather other operations under a cartel-like structure. Basically, groups of threat actors can use the service and white label under their own name so it appears they are their own brand. In return, they don’t have to deal with the headache of running data leak and negotiation sites, develop malware, or deal with negotiations.

A group’s representative told BleepingComputer that they’re purely financially motivated but also follow a moral compass and are against attacking certain healthcare organizations.

Researchers at cybersecurity company Secureworks say that DragonForce’s model may appeal to a wider range of affiliates and attract less technical threat actors.
