LockBit carried out 101 cyberattacks in February: NordLocker report

A digital storage firm company says the ransomware group whose software was used to attack Indigo Books & Music carried out 101 attacks in the month of February, a record for the group that began operating in 2019.

NordLocker says LockBit has carried out more than 1,300 attacks since January 2020, and doubled its monthly attack record in February.

LockBit is the name of both a cyberattack group and a software used to carry out these attacks.

LockBit mainly targeted U.S. companies, and in 2022 increased its average attacks per month to 60.
