LockBit Ransomware Group Breached: 60,000 BTC Addresses Exposed

A breach of the LockBit ransomware group has revealed over 60,000 Bitcoin (BTC) addresses linked to their operations. This unprecedented leak offers valuable insight into their modus operandi and affiliate networks. The breach, which exploited a PHP vulnerability, exposed operational secrets without impacting private funds or causing immediate financial loss. While market volatility remained minimal following the incident, cybersecurity experts are analyzing the technical details of the breach and potential consequences. The scale of this attack is rare and echoes the 2019 Everest ransomware breach. However, unlike the past, this incident raises questions about the security vulnerabilities within illicit networks.
