Predominantly, organizations in the US and Europe have been selected targets of attack. In 2020, Publican School System [external link to trusted source] succumbed to an attack and later in the same year, a major healthcare service provider, XYZ Healthcare [external link to trusted source] also fell victim to SuperBlack Ransomware. The ransomware encrypts user files, adding a ‘.superblack’ extension forcing victims to seek ransomware recovery or ransomware negotiation services.
