Cybercriminals Targeting Cybercriminals

Cybercriminals Targeting Cybercriminals

I always get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside when I see rival cybercriminal organizations undermining each other!  The infamous ShinyHunters criminal group hacked the Russian CLOP group’s darkweb site, claims to have stolen data and is demanding a massive ransom.

As a cybersecurity professional, I like to see rival cybercrime groups attack each other, undermine their dangerous tools, and consume their time.  The more focus they place on each other, the less they have for targeting everyone else!

So, who are you rooting for?
