noescape

According to ransomware.live, NoEscape was a RaaS operation active from May to December 2023 believed to be a rebrand of the defunct Avaddon ransomware, targeting professional services, manufacturing, and healthcare with triple-extortion capabilities (encryption, data theft, and optional DDoS), before abruptly shutting down in an apparent exit scam.
