"The FBI has learned of a cyber-criminal group who self identifies as the 'OnePercent Group' and who have used Cobalt Strike to perpetuate ransomware attacks against US companies since November 2020," the FBI said.

"OnePercent Group actors encrypt the data and exfiltrate it from the victims’ systems. The actors contact the victims via telephone and email, threatening to release the stolen data through The Onion Router (TOR) network and clearnet, unless a ransom is paid in virtual currency."
