"Ransomware Leak Site Victims Reached Record-High in November"

According to security researchers at Corvus Insurance, ransomware groups seemed to return with a vengeance in November after a quieter month in October, with the highest number of listed victims ever recorded.  The researchers observed 484 new ransomware victims posted to leak sites in November.  This represents a 39.08% increase from October and a 110.43% increase compared with November 2022.  The researchers noted that this is the eleventh month in a row with a year-on-year increase in ransomware victims and the ninth in a row with victim counts above 300.  This is also the third time such a record has been broken this year.
