NOTES:
- A list of Proofpoint's blog posts about CryptXXX ransomware can be found here.
- Background on the Afraidgate campaign is here.
- Background on the EITest campaign is here.
- Background on the pseudoDarkleech campaign is here.
- A blog about campaigns switching from Angler EK to Neutrino EK is here.
- Compromised websites for today's first two pseudoDarkleech infections were found on malwaredomainlist.com (link).
- The chipdating.link URL used in malvertising, still active and causing Rig EK, was tweeted by @malekal_morte (link).
- The referer for the other Rig EK pcap was found on Broadanalysis.com (link).
- Of note, the CryptXXX sample from today's last pcap of Neutrino EK sending CryptXXX (using the hopto.org redirect) makes me think CryptXXX was updated.
