The BlackByte ransomware group has shown an aggressive shift in tactics by exploiting the CVE-2024-37085 vulnerability in VMware ESXi, indicating that they swiftly adapt to target core infrastructure.
Darren Guccione remarks on BlackByte: "The exploitation of CVE-2024-37085 represents an aggressive approach...organizations must invest in adaptive security measures that can keep up with the ever-evolving threat environment."
The focus on ESXi vulnerabilities indicates BlackByte's intent to disrupt enterprise networks significantly, as a single attack can affect multiple virtual machines.
Heath Renfrow suggests BlackByte's method changes are related to the widespread use of Active Directory systems, leading to easier attacks across infrastructures.
