Authorities in Ukraine, with support from French police and Europol, have arrested the suspected administrator of XSS.is, one of the largest and most influential Russian-language cybercrime forums.
XSS.is served as a key marketplace for stolen data, hacking tools, and illicit services, boasting over 50,000 registered users. The arrest follows a four-year international investigation, during which law enforcement wiretapped servers and gathered evidence of the suspect's involvement in cybercrime and ransomware activities generating at least $7 million in profits. The takedown marks a significant blow to the Russian-speaking cybercriminal underground.
Officials say the operation demonstrates the effectiveness of international cooperation in combating cybercrime.
