Conti Ransomware Gang Chats Leaked by Pro-Ukraine Member

A member of the Conti ransomware group, believed to be Ukrainian of origin, has leaked the gang's internal chats after the group's leaders posted an aggressive pro-Russian message on their official site, on Friday, in the aftermath of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. From a report: The message appears to have rubbed Conti's Ukrainian members the wrong way, and one of them has hacked the gang's internal Jabber/XMPP server. Internal logs were leaked earlier today via an email sent to multiple journalists and security researchers. Dmitry Smilyanets, a threat intelligence analyst for Recorded Future, who has interacted with the Conti gang in the past, has confirmed the authenticity of the leaked conversations. The leaked data contains 339 JSON files, with each file consisting of a full day's log. Conversations from January 29, 2021, to last February 27, 2022, have been leaked and can be read online here, courtesy of security firm IntelligenceX.
