Cybersecurity researchers from Kookmin University and the Korea Internet and Security Agency (KISA) have successfully cracked the Rhysida ransomware. They discovered an "implementation vulnerability" that allowed them to reconstruct encryption keys and decrypt data locked by the malware. The findings were published last week, and as a result, a free decryption tool has been released to help victims retrieve their data.
