This past week, I said that I had multiple articles that included some good news. I recently saw a third liked on Linked in, but the one I’m talking about now … or will be shortly … will just make the holidays just as good.
Apparently, there was a service out on the Internet that distributed bad software. That’s nothing new, except that these arrests happened in Romaina. I guess that may not be a surprise to some, but when we’re in a deluge of nothing but bad news from several countries, you start to wonder whether there is good news in this world.
Romanian police have arrested two people for allegedly distributing malicious software designed to evade anti-virus protections to more than 1,560 accused
cybercriminals, Europol, the European Union’s law enforcement agency, said Friday.…
In addition to the two arrests this week, law enforcement agencies in Romania, Norway and the U.S. seized computing infrastructure allegedly used by a
suspect, according to Europol which credited the FBI for helping. An FBI spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the bureau’s
role in the operation.
This is awesome, and there is lots of linked text within the article: Police arrest 2 in connection with CyberSeal, Dataprotector crime services and they did not protect your data, they took it. Read the full article if this interests you, and make it a great day!
