The threat actors behind Venus Ransomware target publicly-exposed Remote Desktop services to exfiltrate data and encrypt Windows devices. Venus campaigns have been observed since mid-2021 and have increased since September 2022. The attack campaigns are opportunistic and broad across verticals.
Upon execution, the malware will spawn several processes to terminate security solutions, set up the machine for encryption, and execute ransomware payload. Once executed, the Venus ransomware attempts to cover tracks and block recovery mechanisms including backups and the built-in VSS shadow copies on Windows devices.
