Authorities in Ukraine, with support from French police and Europol, have arrested the suspected administrator of XSS.is, one of the largest and most notorious Russian-language 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 four-year international investigation, during which authorities wiretapped servers and uncovered evidence of extensive cybercriminal and ransomware activities. The suspect is accused of generating at least $7 million in illicit profits through the platform.
This takedown marks a significant blow to the Russian-speaking cybercrime underworld.
