Medusa ransomware now operates as a RaaS model, recruiting affiliates from criminal forums to launch attacks, encrypt data, and extort victims worldwide.

Law enforcement agencies including the FBI and CISA have issued a warning about the ongoing threat of Medusa ransomware.

Medusa ransomware is dangerous enough that the FBI sent a 15-page memo warning people and entire industries. The agency says hundreds of victims have been reported and entire fields, from medicine to education and technology to manufacturing have been hit.
