by

The FBI’s successful seizure of the servers and domains belonging to the ransomware gang Radar (also known as Dispossessor) is a significant development in the ongoing battle against cybercrime. This group, which has been active since August 2023, employed tactics such as exploiting security vulnerabilities, stealing data, and employing “double extortion” methods to demand ransoms from targeted companies. The collaborative effort involving global law enforcement led to the takedown of servers located in the UK and Germany. Visitors to Radar’s website now encounter a seizure notice issued by law enforcement.
