Researchers recently observed the emergence of a new ransomware operation named DarkSide threat actor, once again thrusting the group’s name into the spotlight. Threat actors are taking advantage of social engineering campaigns. DarkSide Campaign is targeting the food and energy industry by sending threatening emails. In the emails, the threat actor declares that they have successfully exploited networks and gained unauthorized access to sensitive information, which will be disclosed publicly if a ransom of 100 bitcoins (BTC) is not paid. This campaign is started on June 4 and hitting a few targets every day.
