Europol's Major Cyber Operation Dismantles Malware Networks and Arrests Suspects

Operation Endgame, a coordinated effort by U.S. and European law enforcement, targets major cybercrime platforms delivering ransomware and data-stealing malware. The operation has led to the arrest of four suspects, the disruption of over 100 servers, and the seizure of more than 2,000 domain names. Authorities aim to disrupt the infrastructure supporting malware "droppers" like IcedID and Trickbot, with ongoing actions promised. The initiative also includes psychological tactics to undermine cybercriminal trust and operations.
