Russia shut down REvil gang hacker group & infrastructure 'liquidated
By MYBRANDBOOK
The notorious cybercrime group REvil was liquidated by the Russian authorities (FSB) and its 15 members were arrested. Moscow said the ransomware group REvil “ceased to exist” after raids and arrests .
REvil once named as "Crown prince of Ransomware", was responsible for the Kaseya supply chain attack, and many other high-profile breaches. However, it is not clear if the operation will ease tensions with Washington.
Russia’s main security agency, known as the F.S.B., said “the organized crime gang ceased to exist” after a sweeping operation that was carried out in 25 locations across five Russian regions. The raids followed multiple requests by the Biden administration for the Kremlin to help shut down such groups.
Interfax said the equivalent of over US$5 million was seized at the residences of 14 members of the hacker group, as well as computer equipment, crypto wallets and 20 premium cars.
The arrests were announced on the same day that the U.S. government accused Russia of sending saboteurs into Ukraine to create a pretext for invasion, and that hackers shut down dozens of Ukraine’s government websites - an attack that Ukrainian officials suggested had originated in Russia.
