The FBI has provided over 7,000 decryption keys to victims of the LockBit ransomware group, allowing them to recover their data for free.

This follows the dismantling of the LockBit gang through 'Operation Cronos' earlier this year.

Despite this, LockBit remains active on new servers and dark web domains.

The ransomware gang has reportedly made up to $1 billion from 7,000 attacks globally.

Dmitry Khoroshev, the alleged leader of LockBit, is unlikely to face trial as he resides in Russia.

The U.S. State Department is offering a reward of up to $15 million for information on the leaders of the group.

Victims are urged to seek assistance from the FBI to reclaim their data and remain vigilant against potential threats.

Collaboration between private organizations, nonprofits, academia, and the government is emphasized in preventing ransomware attacks.

The FBI continues to offer a $10 million reward for information leading to Khoroshev's arrest.
