RAKESH KRISHNAN
I am a Threat Intelligence Researcher and a regular contributor to the Infosec Community via Tweets and Investigation Blog Posts. I run a Threat Intelligence Blog named "THE RAVEN FILE" which purely focuses on Threat Intelligence Topics such as Dark Web, Ransomware Ecosystem, Scam Busting, Blockchain Analysis, etc.
Recently, I infiltrated into 0APT Ransomware Group and exposed their Modus Operandi on my latest blog post. I often expose the real IP Addresses of Ransomware Groups such as: LockBit, Kairos, etc repeatedly. 3 years back, I made it into the headlines of finding Offensive GPT Model titled "FraudGPT" which got a global recognition.
I had conducted a 3-Hour Dark Web Workshop for Conferences like:- Craccon in 2025 and at IICON in 2024 which were held in Delhi, India.
This year, I have been made into the list of Contributor of the Year by ABUSECH and SPAMHAUS for providing large number of IOCs, Ransomware Samples to the Platform, making a real impact in the Infosec Community by providing timely action for Defending the Threats.
