Bian Lian is a relatively new ransomware gang that began conducting aggressive operations in mid-2022. Uniquely the Bian Lian gang has been using custom malware written in general purpose code or golang. In this talk, we'll discuss hunting these threat actors from both an incident responder and threat analyst perspective. We'll cover the threat actor techniques and procedures and discuss some challenges in pursuing this group. We'll focus on undisclosed information from the research that the redacted team conducted before our September 2022 Bian Lian report. Additionally, newly discovered intelligence about the gang the redacted team has gathered after the report's recent release.
