Ransomware Actors Show Up In Person to Steal Law Firm Data

By Alexander Culafi

AI Summary

The FBI has warned that Silent Ransom Group (SRG) is now physically visiting law firm offices as part of its extortion campaigns, combining social engineering with in-person workstation access to steal data. The gang has specifically targeted the legal services sector, blending remote compromise with physical intrusion in a tactic rarely seen from financially motivated cybercriminals. Law firms should review both their remote access controls and physical security policies in response.
