⚖️ Law Firms Under Siege: Silent Ransom Group’s Sophisticated Attacks

📢 The FBI has issued a warning about the Silent Ransom Group (SRG), also known as Luna Moth, targeting U.S. law firms with advanced social engineering tactics.

📧 SRG sends phishing emails disguised as subscription invoices, prompting recipients to call a number where attackers impersonate IT support.

🖥️ Victims are guided to install remote access tools like AnyDesk or Zoho Assist, granting attackers control over their systems.

🔐 Once inside, SRG exfiltrates sensitive legal data and demands ransom payments to prevent public disclosure.

🎯 Law firms are prime targets due to the confidential nature of their data, making them more susceptible to extortion.

🛡️ To defend against such threats, law firms must invest in employee training, implement strict access controls, and develop comprehensive incident response plans.
