I'm not saying it is Russia but...

This pattern somewhat matches earlier years. Very quiet in January (Russian Orthodox Christmas) and quiet in August as well, presumably the summer holidays at their dachas.

I've pulled the data for 2026 and a somewhat random sampling of countries most frequently targeted by ransomware. The first includes the USA, which is always dominant as a victim country. I removed the USA for the second and only included CA, UK, DE, FR, IT, AU, and IN.
This is simply the public posts and doesn't include victims who may have paid before being exposed or were never publicly extorted.
I sourced this from the Sophos CTU (Cyber Threat Unit).

I'm checking with them now. I know we scrape any victim posts from the main ransomware actors over time, but my knowledge of what is stored in which database is not current sobi am asking for help. I think we store the amount of data, the country, etc.

our CTU team should have the historic data for public leak site postings, I'll ask them to take a look.

this is consistent with our Active Adversary Report. We are working on the next one now, but no signs of AI anything.

I wish I had a nickel for every time I hear someone say this. It's just patently not true unless you are running the worst security program imaginable.

Worth a shot :) Certainly interested if you see more. I will reach out to some friends at the GOOG and see if they can help.

@npub1lcc…lcye Any chance you have any of those HEIF spam samples you mentioned last week? I'm interested in doing some testing, but don't have any in my spam trap.

I understand that tech bros in their 20s think I am old and slow and stuck in my ways of thinking and they're right. I've made most of the mistakes, embraced technologies before they were ready and believed the con artists promising me things they can never deliver. Now I am old and I know better.
Buy a fucking clue. In fact, I won't even charge them, just use your head and listen for once.

They did the same thing when they bought Symantec. They only want the Fortune 1000, everyone else can pound sand. Odd strategy. We had customers telling us (Sophos) that Symantec wouldn't even accept their POs as they were too small and unwanted.

Hi Canadian friends, can I recommend Peace by Chocolate? (Slogan, "One peace won't hurt"). Homemade chocolates from a Syrian refugee family in Nova Scotia. Proudly Canadian and very delicious.

If you're traveling around the area (especially East of Hope) watch for their enormous nests on top of the utility poles, especially in Manning Park. We love our bald eagles.

I am currently recovering from COVID, so I can't say that Vancouver is a safe place to be this week. I mean, sure, avoid me, but I barely leave the house and always mask, but . . . Stay safe out there.

If you want to avoid the nightmare that is Ruby, Hugo is great and similarly well supported and old. I have been using it after using Jekyll and I find it easier.

Is it just me or should all journalists be seriously looking at the Fediverse as the only sensible home? Now with Threads being able to follow accounts here and Threads banning political and news content on their own platform, it seems like the perfect workaround. Add in a bridge to BSky and Bob's deep throat's uncle.

I need to do more testing, but that seems odd. It shouldn't trigger a hit unless it needs to generate the thumbnail. (I will test and confirm)

My understanding is when I create content on the job it belongs to my employer. When I choose to do things outside of work that may be confused with things I am paid to do, I inform my employer ahead of time of which work is on the clock and which is mine. Doesn't seem complicated?

They've also turned Tom's Hardware into an affiliate revenue generating cesspool. For shame.

Another great pub erased by Future PLC. Still waiting for my refund of Maximum PC magazine they also abruptly killed without notice. Terrible firm.
