The cybercriminal gang LockBit has now set its sights on Apple products with the development of its first ransomware for Macs, according to 9to5 Mac.
The Mac-specific ransomware seems to target Apple Silicon Macs and is listed on the web under the build name locker_Apple_M1_64, according to researchers. LockBit is a notoriously powerful gang on the web, and is known by security analysts as a Russian-based group. Even so, the group leader is believed to operate out of the U.S. or China. The cybercriminal gang is a ransomware-as-a-service operation that allows others to purchase their nefarious products for their own unsavory tasks, 9to5 Mac noted.
