An international law-enforcement operation (Operation Cronos) dismantled significant portions of the LockBit ransomware-as-a-service operation: authorities seized source code, disabled darknet leak sites, dismantled servers, recovered over 1,000 decryption keys, froze 200+ crypto accounts, and arrested affiliates, while noting LockBit had impacted ~2,500 victims and generated over $100M; despite the disruption the group showed signs of re-emergence.
