Once they&#8217;re inside a victim&#8217;s network, they deploy their ransomware, encrypt everything they can touch and leave a ransom note inviting the target to contact them through a messaging platform controlled by the gang. From there the extortionists demand a hefty payment in cryptocurrency in return for supplying a decryptor.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks ago somebody claiming to be a REvil contractor <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2021\/09\/30\/revil_ransomware_contractor_interview_lenta\/\" rel=\"noopener\">gave an interview to a Russian-language news outlet<\/a>, painting a mundane picture of someone who knows he&#8217;s doing bad things and doesn&#8217;t really care either way.
