FBI Zaps Radar Ransomware: Cybercriminals’ Servers Seized Worldwide

Hot Take:
Looks like Radar’s ringleader “Brain” needs a new game plan—maybe a new VPN subscription while he’s at it?
Key Points:
- The FBI takes down Radar ransomware group’s infrastructure, including servers and domains.
- Radar targeted 43 organizations worldwide using double-extortion tactics.
- Three servers in the US, three in the UK, and 18 in Germany were confiscated.
- Radar exploited vulnerabilities, weak passwords, and lack of MFA for access.
- The takedown follows similar actions against other ransomware gangs like LockBit.
