The VX-Underground malware-sharing collective has been framed by a new variant of Phobos ransomware, indicating the group’s involvement in encryptor attacks.

This latest variant features ransom notes mimicking VX-Underground’s style and contact details, suggesting threat actors have display a vested interest in the cybersecurity community.
