Cl0p has been one of the most active ransomware families over the past several years, targeting numerous private and public organizations globally, in sectors such as aerospace, energy, education, finance, high-tech, healthcare, manufacturing, telecoms, and transportation and logistics.
In November 2021, authorities announced the arrest of six individuals linked to the Cl0p operation, but the ransomware continues to be used in attacks. In August 2022, Cl0p claimed responsibility for hacking a UK water company.
