FBI Takes Down RadarDispossessor Ransomware Servers
Dozens of Servers Seized in Law Enforcement Operation
SME-Targeting Gang Disrupted
The FBI has successfully shut down dozens of servers associated with the RadarDispossessor ransomware gang. The operation, announced on Monday, marks the latest setback for cybercriminals targeting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
According to the FBI, the RadarDispossessor gang has been operating for some time, extorting victims in 14 countries. The group used ransomware to encrypt data on victims' computers, demanding payment in exchange for decryption keys.
The FBI's disruption of the gang's infrastructure is a significant step in combating ransomware. By seizing the servers used to store stolen data and launch attacks, the FBI has effectively crippled the group's operations.
