International Operation Dismantles Sality Botnet; Romania, US, Bulgaria, Hungary Involved

Law enforcement from Romania, the US, Bulgaria, and Hungary, coordinated by the FBI and Europol, dismantled the Sality botnet, a malware infrastructure active for over 20 years that infected millions of computers for cryptocurrency theft and cyberattacks. The operation marks a significant disruption of a long-standing global cyber threat, though the full extent of the takedown's impact on residual infections remains unclear.
