       Europol says an international law enforcement operation has apprehended key figures in Ukraine thought to be behind several high-profile #ransomware attacks which cost victims hundreds of millions of Euros - including deployments of  LockerGoga, MegaCortex, HIVE and Dharma ransomware campaigns.-"Those responsible for breaking into networks did so through techniques including brute force attacks, SQL injections and sending phishing emails with malicious attachments in order to steal usernames and passwords."Once inside the networks, the attackers remained undetected and gained additional access using tools including TrickBot malware, Cobalt Strike and PowerShell Empire, in order to compromise as many systems as possible before triggering ransomware attacks.https://www.europol.europa.eu/media-press/newsroom/news/international-collaboration-leads-to-dismantlement-of-ransomware-group-in-ukraine-amidst-ongoing-war
