Qilin Ransomware Attack Targets Chrome Credentials

The Qilin ransomware group has launched a new attack that targets Google Chrome credentials. By exploiting a Group Policy Object, the attackers run a PowerShell script at each login, allowing them to steal sensitive data. The attack also involves the use of VPN credentials to facilitate the data theft. This evolution in ransomware tactics highlights the increasing sophistication of cyber threats.
