ransomware coders

Eldorado ransomware is a sophisticated Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) that targets both Windows and Linux operating systems using advanced encryption techniques such as Chacha20 and RSA-OAEP. The malware has the ability to spread through shared networks and infect removable media like USB drives. Affiliates recruited by cyber-criminals through underground forums can customize attacks to specific target networks or organizations. As of June 2024, Eldorado has targeted numerous companies across various industries worldwide. Implementing multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection and response solutions, regular data backups, timely patching, and continuous employee training is crucial to defend against ransomware attacks.
