Treasury also issued an updated Advisory on Potential Sanctions Risks for Facilitating Ransomware Payments that proclaims the US government "strongly discourages all private companies and citizens from paying ransom or extortion demands" because doing so nourishes criminals. "Analysis of known SUEX transactions shows that over 40 per cent of SUEX's known transaction history is associated with illicit actors" and the organisation was accused of "providing material support to the threat posed by criminal ransomware actors". "SUEX has facilitated transactions involving illicit proceeds from at least eight ransomware variants," Treasury asserted.
