RansomHub's Modus Operandi

Known for its speed and efficiency, RansomHub employs double extortion tactics, encrypting victims' data while exfiltrating sensitive information to increase leverage in ransom demands. The group targets high-value sectors, including healthcare, financial services, and government, exploiting vulnerabilities in unpatched systems and leveraging phishing campaigns for initial access.

RansomHub reportedly gained access to the company's systems, exfiltrating a vast amount of client-related data. The group has threatened to publish the compromised data if their demands are not met, underscoring the severe implications of such breaches for businesses and their clients. TrulySmall Invoices' focus on small-scale operations and its niche market may have made it an appealing target for RansomHub, which seeks to exploit entities with valuable data and critical operations.

The ransomware attack poses a significant risk to TrulySmall Invoices, potentially damaging its reputation and eroding client trust.
