The delivery network of CryptoLocker is still running despite the ransomware not being active since the international takedown.
According to Security Week, Bitdefender reports that it has kept a close eye on CryptoLocker over the past nine months, and while victim losses are estimated at roughly $27 million, but the actual damage, without including the value of the lost files, could be twice as much.
However while communications have been disrupted, the CryptoLocker infrastructure is still up and it is currently being used by other cyber criminals for scams, fake anti-viruses, fraud, casino schemes and even for the Citadel banking Trojan.
