Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

analyzing-ransomware-leak-site-intelligence scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Analyzing Ransomware Leak Site Intelligence

Overview

Ransomware groups operating under double-extortion models maintain data leak sites (DLS) on Tor hidden services where they post victim names, stolen data samples, and countdown timers to pressure payment. In H1 2025, 96 unique ransomware groups were active, listing approximately 535 victims per month. Monitoring these sites provides intelligence on active threat groups, targeted sectors, geographic patterns, and emerging ransomware families. This skill covers safely collecting DLS intelligence, extracting structured data, tracking group activity trends, and producing sector-specific risk assessments.

When to Use

  • When investigating security incidents that require analyzing ransomware leak site intelligence
  • When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
  • When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
  • When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.9+ with requests, beautifulsoup4, pandas, matplotlib libraries
  • Tor proxy (SOCKS5) for accessing .onion sites or commercial DLS monitoring feeds
  • Understanding of ransomware double-extortion business model
  • Familiarity with major ransomware families (Qilin, Akira, LockBit, BlackCat, Clop)
  • Access to ransomware tracking feeds (Ransomwatch, RansomLook, DarkFeed)

Key Concepts

Double Extortion Model

Modern ransomware groups encrypt victim data AND exfiltrate it before encryption. Leak sites serve as public pressure: victims are listed with a countdown timer, partial data samples, and file trees. If ransom is not paid, full data is published. Some groups have moved to triple extortion, adding DDoS threats or contacting victims' customers directly.

DLS Intelligence Value

Leak sites provide: victim identification (company name, sector, country), attack timeline (when listed, deadline, data published), data volume estimates, group capability assessment (sectors targeted, attack frequency, operational tempo), and trend analysis (new groups emerging, groups rebranding, law enforcement takedowns).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
