Qilin is quickly becoming one of the most dominant ransomware groups in the world, and it’s not because of groundbreaking tactics. It’s because of their business model.

In this episode, we break down how Qilin operates as a ransomware-as-a-service group, why affiliates are flocking to them (hint: 80–85% payouts), and how that’s fueling explosive growth across industries worldwide. From real-world attack patterns to how they gain access and evade detection, we’re diving into what makes this group so effective, and why organizations should be paying attention.
