Russian authorities have arrested 14 individuals suspected of being part of the notorious REvil, aka Sodinokibi, ransomware operation. Authorities say they acted on information shared by U.S. law enforcement agencies. White House officials last September had confirmed they’d been sharing intelligence on leading Russia-based ransomware-using suspects with Moscow. Authorities seized more than $5.6 million, some of it in cryptocurrency, as well as $600,000 in cash, plus 500,000 euros ($572,000) Agents also seized “computer equipment, crypto wallets used to commit crimes””]
