interlock
ransomware group · aka Interlock, Interlock ransomware · unknown · active since 2024-09
Interlock is a ransomware and data-extortion group first documented by vendors in September 2024 (Trend Micro, 2024). It is notable for fielding encryptors for Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD, including use against NAS appliances, and for being among the first ransomware operations to adopt the 'ClickFix' fake CAPTCHA/browser-update social-engineering chain (Sucuri, 2024). Vendor research in 2025 documented a Rust-based Interlock RAT used alongside the encryptor, with later versions hiding configuration in images. No public attribution to a country or named leadership is available. Public victim reporting is limited; the group has been linked to the City of West Plains, Texas DOT, and, per this dashboard's tracking, NFM Lending (posted 2026-09-07).
- ClickFix social engineering: fake 'verify you are human'/CAPTCHA or fake browser-update prompts on compromised websites trick users into running PowerShell commands that fetch the payload (Sucuri, 2024).
- PowerShell-based delivery chains using Invoke-Expression and attacker-controlled download URLs.
- Multi-platform encryptors for Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD; deployed against NAS devices such as QNAP and Synology (Trend Micro, 2024).
- Rust-based Interlock RAT deployed for post-access operations alongside ransomware; 2025 versions reportedly hide configuration in images via steganography (vendor research, 2025).
- Double extortion: steals data pre-encryption and threatens publication on a Tor leak site.
- Targets internet-exposed servers and appliances; no widely reported reliance on specific CVE exploitation for initial access.
- Reconnaissance and data staging on compromised servers before encryption and leak-site posting.
Devon International Group (US conglomerate; listed on Interlock leak site, October 2024), City of West Plains, Missouri (confirmed ransomware attack, November 2024), Texas Department of Transportation (incident confirmed by TxDOT; Interlock claimed ~35 GB of stolen data, May 2025), NFM Lending (listed on Interlock leak site, per this dashboard's tracking, 2026-09-07)
