Ransomware BitLocker

The BitLocker ransomware has exploited known vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange, these vulnerabilities became known as ProxyShell, this name was given to the combination of three vulnerabilities: CVE-2021-34473, CVE-2021-34523 and CVE-2021-31207.

Unlike other groups, BitLocker uses a tool from Windows itself to encrypt the files, a tool that gives the group its name.

This encryption tactic requires a bit more from the group, because it needs to take control of the system through remote access, so that it can perform the encryption. Even if the BitLocker program is disabled, the malware executes commands to enable it.

The fact that the group has to control the system remotely is of concern, because it does not just use this “privilege” to activate encryption, through this the malware moves laterally in the system looking for backup systems and domain controllers.

This process is time consuming, it can last a few hours. And when the encryption process is finished all systems are locked down and a ransom note is left on the desktop containing information for the victim to contact the group.

The ransom is charged in cryptocurrencies and can vary according to the size of the company and the amount of files that have been encrypted. The amount is usually around the thousands of dollars.

In cases where even the backup is encrypted it may seem that the only way out is to pay the ransom, but that is not. Digital Recovery specializes in ransomware encrypted data recovery, we can recover files that have been encrypted by Bitlocker ransomware on any storage device.
