The FBI has issued a public advisory warning that Silent Ransom Group (SRG), a Conti ransomware successor, is targeting U.S. law firms through phishing, fake IT support calls, and in-person office visits to steal sensitive data for extortion. The group also targets healthcare, insurance, and financial sector organisations. No confirmed successful intrusions or loss estimates are provided in the advisory.

Impact verdict
Low impact. While the FBI advisory highlights a persistent and escalating threat to U.S. law firms and insurance/financial sector organisations, no confirmed successful intrusions, named victim organisations, or insured loss estimates are provided. The advisory is a threat warning without a concrete London Market loss pathway — no claims, reserving actions, or specific insured asset losses are evidenced. Cyber underwriters writing professional services and financial institution books should monitor, but no immediate market action is warranted.
