ESET takes part in Operation Endgame to disrupt Amadey and Stealc
A year ago, ESET Research was part of two major operations that disrupted some of the leading cybercriminal operations at the time, Lumma Stealer and Danabot. More recently, our researchers are once again collaborating with private partners and law enforcement, but this time taking aim at the Amadey botnet and Stealc infostealer, both provided via malware-as-a-service (MaaS) offerings. Operation Endgame – coordinated by Microsoft Digital Crimes Unit (DCU), BitSight, Lumen, Mitsui Bussan Secure Directions (MBSD), and other partners – targeted all known network infrastructure used by Amadey and Stealc affiliates in order to cripple their cybercriminal operations.
ESET contributed to this effort by providing technical analyses, statistical information, known command and control (C&C) servers, encryption keys, campaign and build identifiers, and other threat intelligence collected during our long-term tracking of both malware families.
