First detected in September 2024 and initially targeting the United States and Canada, the Nitrogen ransomware group has since expanded its reach into parts of Africa and Europe. Many of their victims remain absent from Nitrogen’s public ransomware blog and likely never will be listed. At the time of writing, ransomware.live reports 21 known victims of Nitrogen. Notably, indicators of this malware family surfaced as early as 2023, suggesting links to other ransomware infections.
