- This project is just a proof-of-concept ransomware simulation toolkit. It is NOT PRODUCTION GRADE.
The tool simulates a ransomware attack on a target by encrypting EBS volumes with the specified key.
Use this tool only if you know exactly what you are doing. It deletes all snapshots in an AWS Region
The tool works in the following manner :
- Generate list of all EBS volumes in the region
- Take snapshots of all volumes
- Wait for snapshots to become Available.
- Create new Volumes using the snapshots and specify encryption configuration as the KMS key.
- Delete all the snapshots in the AWS Region (Nuke).
