DoppelPaymer ransomware developers release files stolen from contractors to SpaceX, Tesla, Boeing, Lockheed-Martin and US Navy. Security researchers have warned of a new ransomware campaign that targets companies handling sensitive data – and then publishes their internal files online if they do not pay. DoppelPaymer emerged in mid-2019, but in recent weeks has published data belonging to contractors for the US Navy, Lockheed-Martin and SpaceX. The variant emerged from the BitPaymer ransomware in June of last year, researchers say, but has added its own features, such as the expropriation and publication of targets’ data.
