Conti Ransomware group breached from within

The cybercriminal organizations are taking a stand regarding the war in Ukraine.

The Conti-ransomware organization took a stand by endorsing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. That was not appreciated by everyone in the organization.

Intimate data regarding their attack infrastructure and RaaS platform is leaked to public in the shape of chat-conversations. Passwords, panels…

This is very similar to what happened 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea. Criminal organizations had internal battles over national loyalties.

Please, keep politics outside of this discussion. Lets focus on the technical side of it.
War is a terrible thing, no matter whos side you are on.

“If any body will decide to organize a cyberattack or any war activities against Russia, we are going to use our all possible resources to strike back at the critical infrastructures of an enemy."

I knew that it was a very poor decision to make such a declaration, not due to it being political, but merely as it will be perceived as a "challenge".
