### Persistence Mechanism Identified

Post-payload activation, modifications to the registry keys were detected, indicating attempts to establish persistence. **Key Details:**
- **Registry Changes:** New entries created for auto-starting the ransomware on boot.
- **Stealth Tactics:** Obfuscation techniques used to avoid detection by standard monitoring tools.

This persistence mechanism suggests the attacker’s intention to maintain long-term access, priming the environment for lateral movement.
