Ransomware groups are increasingly using a new malware called Skitnet ("Bossnet") to carry out discreet post-exploitation activities on compromised networks. This malware allows attackers to maintain persistent access and conduct additional actions without being detected. The use of Skitnet indicates an evolution in the tactics of cybercriminals to maximize the impact of their attacks.
