"Check Point’s Incident Response Team investigated the deployment of the ransomware against #Israeli organizations and claimed by a group dubbing itself Moneybird."
"Researchers found that it bore the hallmarks of Agrius, a #hacker group that has been around since 2020 and has attempted to disguise itself with aliases like BlackShadow."
"The group is known for having targeted the Israeli insurance company Shirbit with ransomware in late 2020 and Bar-Ilan University in 2021, and for deploying wiper attacks."
"According to Check Point investigators, Moneybird is a new product for the group. Most of its previous attacks have been carried out with ransomware called Apostle."
