Hacker group Lockbit infiltrated giga companies such as Boeing, ICBC, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. Now it's finally over.
Got the keys to unlock
International police and investigators, led by the "National Crime Agency" in Great Britain, have arrested several members who were critically important to the criminal operation:
“Through our close cooperation, we have hacked the hackers, taken control of their infrastructure, seized their source code, and obtained keys that will help victims decrypt their systems. As of today, LockBit is locked out. We have damaged the capacity and not least the credibility of a group that depended on secrecy and anonymity," says a statement from the National Crime Agency's chief Graeme Biggar.
Above vx-underground, the hacker group confirms that the websites have been seized and is said to have stated that they have "become owned by the FBI"
