U.S. and international authorities have dismantled critical infrastructure tied to the LummaC2 info-stealer malware, a operation responsible for over 1.7 million theft attempts globally. The malware specifically targeted cryptocurrency wallet seed phrases, compromising nearly 394,000 systems according to Microsoft threat intelligence.
The coordinated takedown involved the U.S. Department of Justice, Europol, Japan’s Cybercrime Control Center, and private cybersecurity firms. This action disrupts a significant vector for crypto-related cybercrime that had been actively compromising digital asset security worldwide.
