I doubt much ransomware is developed to be cross platform, having three different programs seems more logical. It might launch under wine?

  "Much" no, but I'm sure I've seen report of python-based ransomware.

Actually, yes the DarkSide ransomware has a Linux version. See: https://krebsonsecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/darkside20.txt https://krebsonsecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/darks...

  " Who are we NOT looking for? ------------------------------ English-speaking individuals. " That made me laugh. Now I really wonder if those ransomware groups are that stupid or Krebs himself.

    Why, looking for partners of the same cultural background and specifically excluding another cultural background (presumably correlated with being a CIA agent or whatever?) sound like things criminals would do. The only strange part: why would this be written in English?

      Yes, sorry, you're on the right path. I did not think I must explain what exactly made me laugh there.

  From your link under the Linux section: Support of main versions of ESXI [5.1 - 7.0]. Support of NAS (Synology, OMV, etc. (TBA)). It doesn’t surprise me to see those listed but I don’t see support for traditional Linux (Redhat, Debian, etc.). Am I missing something here?

  The URL contains 2021/05, but was this really collected May 2021? Because a 23 bitcoin deposit seems steep for the opportunity to work with them. I would assume black-hat hackers who have this amount of money on hand typically don't need to seek out ransomware groups to rally behind
