Nigeria Moving to Shut Down Scammers

It turns out Nigeria is taking measures to fight Internet scammers. Law enforcement there has shut down close to a thousand websites and made 18 arrests. The program, called Project Eagle Claw, has only just begun, but Nigerian officials expect it to be fully operational in 2010. Researchers at Recorded Future report a rise in cracked Cobalt Strike and other open-source adversarial tools with easy-to-use interfaces. Researchers have spotted notable code overlap between the Sunburst backdoor and a known Turla weapon.
