Four people have been arrested in what European authorities are calling “the largest ever operation against botnets.” Europol says over 100 internet servers that were being used to install malware were either taken down or disrupted in the international operation carried out this week. A spokesperson for Germany’s federal police says the arrests were made in Armenia and Ukraine, and that one of the main suspects earned over 74-million dollars in cryptocurrency by renting out criminal infrastructure sites to deploy ransomware.
