The notorious hacker USDoD, who is best known for high-profile data leaks, appears to be a man from Brazil, according to investigations conducted by CrowdStrike and others.
Over the past few years, USDoD, aka EquationCorp, has leaked vast amounts of information stolen from major organizations. His targets include the FBI’s InfraGard portal, Airbus, credit reporting firm TransUnion, background checking service National Public Data (NPD), and many others.
The investigation into Telegram boss Pavel Durov that has fired a warning shot to global tech titans was started by a small cybercrime unit within the Paris prosecutor's office, led by 38-year-old Johanna Brousse.
The arrest of Durov, 39, last Saturday marks a significant shift in how some global authorities may seek to deal with tech chiefs reluctant to police illegal content on their platforms.
The arrest signalled the mettle of the J3 cybercrime unit, but the true test of its ambitions will be whether Brousse can secure a conviction based on a largely untested legal argument, lawyers said.
The deployment of ransomware remains the greatest serious and organised cybercrime threat, the largest cybersecurity threat, and also poses a risk to the UK’s national security. Ransomware attacks can have a significant impact on victims due to financial, data, and service losses, which can lead to business closure, inaccessible public services, and compromised customer data. Threat actors are typically based in overseas jurisdictions where limited cooperation makes it challenging for UK law enforcement to disrupt their activities.
