Congrats to INTERPOL for taking down a major cyber information-theft infrastructure! Over 20 thousand Ips/domains were shuttered and 41 servers that contained more than 100GB of sensitive data was seized. It is estimated this group, 32 of which were arrested, victimized over two-hundred thousand people by stealing their login credentials, credit card information, and cryptocurrency wallet keys.
Such takedowns are a showcase of public and private cooperation across cybersecurity to undermine the proliferation of organized criminals and the cybercrimes they are committing. In this case, law enforcement from 26 countries participated, including: Brunei, Cambodia, China, Fiji, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kiribati, Korea (Rep of), Laos, Malaysia, Maldives, Nauru, Nepal, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Samoa, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Tonga, Vanuatu, and Vietnam.
