Ukrainian authorities, with support from French police and Europol, have arrested the suspected administrator of XSS.is, one of the largest and most influential Russian-speaking cybercrime forums.
The forum, which had over 50,000 registered users, served as a key marketplace for stolen data, hacking tools, and illicit services. The arrest follows a coordinated international investigation, including wiretapping and surveillance, that linked the suspect to numerous cybercrime and ransomware activities generating millions in illicit profits. The takedown of XSS.is marks a significant blow to the Russian-speaking cybercriminal underground.
Authorities say this operation demonstrates the growing effectiveness of cross-border law enforcement collaboration against cybercrime.
