Netherlands-based threat intelligence firm Prodaft revealed on February 20 that internal chatlogs from the BlackBasta ransomware gang have been leaked online.
BlackBasta is a ransomware strain that was first detected in April 2022. Early on, cyber threat intelligence experts assessed that the members of the group behind the ransomware were associated with other top-tier ransomware groups, especially Conti and REvil.
Yelisey Bohuslavskiy, Partner and Chief Research Officer at Red Sense, believes BlackBasta is a merger of the two defunct groups.
BlackBasta Internal Chat Logs Likely Legitimate
The leaked internal chat logs, purportedly from the BlackBasta ransomware group's Matrix server, were initially posted on file sharing site MEGA by an individual calling themselves ExploitWhispers.
The files are now accessible via a dedicated Telegram channel after their removal from the original platform.
