An underground economy that mirrors its legitimate ecommerce counterpart is supercharging online criminal behavior, according to a report released Thursday by HP Wolf Security in collaboration with Forensic Pathways. Cybercriminals are now operating on a professional footing with easy-to-launch malware and ransomware attacks being offered on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) basis, allowing people with even rudimentary IT skills to launch cyberattacks at targets of their choosing, the report notes.
