released on 2022-04-08 @ 10:50:36 AM
As part of our monitoring of malicious files in current use, researchers detected a malicious BAT file that was uploaded to VirusTotal from Iran. This file executes a ransomware that we associated with the EvilNominatus ransomware, initially exposed at the end of 2021. It seems that the ransomware's developer is a young Iranian, who bragged about its development on Twitter.
