US Department of Justice Takes Down Blackcat Ransomware Gang in Major Win

Blackcat had a rap sheet, boasting about infiltrating big names like MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, and Reddit, not to mention playing around with critical US infrastructure and a major UK hospital group. The DOJ isn’t easing up – they’re warning that this is just the start. Acting Assistant Attorney General Nicole M. Argentieri made it clear, “Going forward, we will continue our investigation and pursue those behind Blackcat until they are brought to justice.”
