🛑 BREAKING ⛓️💥
U.S. and Global Task Force Shuts Down Russian Ransomware Network
On July 24, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice, working alongside international law enforcement agencies, carried out a coordinated operation against a Russian ransomware group. The action led to the seizure of four servers, nine domains, and around $1 million in Bitcoin.
The crackdown targeted the BlackSuit and Royal ransomware operations, which have collectively extracted over $500 million from victims since 2022 — including at least $370 million in illicit profits. Among the confiscated assets was a $1.45 million Bitcoin ransom paid by victims in April 2023.
Officials say the move has delivered a major blow to the group’s infrastructure, with ongoing investigations likely to bring further charges and additional asset recoveries.
