Wizard Spider is a financially motivated Russian cybercriminal group active since 2016, widely known for operating the TrickBot banking trojan and associated malware ecosystem including BazarBackdoor, Ryuk, and Conti ransomware. The group conducts sophisticated, multi-stage intrusions typically beginning with TrickBot or BazarBackdoor infections that facilitate lateral movement and ultimately ransomware deployment against high-value targets.
