Three ‘cybercrime as a service’ operations undercut by Microsoft, law enforcement

Europol and Microsoft conducted a two-week international operation that dismantled 326 servers and 142 domains used by cybercrime-as-a-service infrastructure supporting Amadey, StealC, and SocGholish; investigators reclaimed ~27 million stolen credentials and €41 million in criminal crypto assets, and identified tens of thousands of infected sites and victim machines, stressing the takedown’s disruptive effect on ransomware, financial fraud, and supply-chain style attacks.
