Europol has announced the arrest of four individuals in Poland and the shutdown of several websites linked to DDoS-for-hire services, also known as booter services. These actions are part of ongoing efforts by law enforcement across North America, Europe, and the APAC region to combat online disruptions caused by such services.
Europol has successfully dismantled six major DDoS-for-hire services that were responsible for numerous cyberattacks across Europe. The operation involved multiple law enforcement agencies and aimed to curb the growing trend of cybercriminals offering DDoS attacks as a service. This crackdown is part of ongoing efforts to enhance cybersecurity and reduce online threats.
