An international coalition of law enforcement agencies coordinated by Europol targeted and took down three cybercrime operations in its latest round of what authorities call "Operation Endgame." In a press release, Europol said that the police operation targeted the infostealing malware Rhadamanthys, a botnet called Elysium, and the remote access trojan VenomRAT. The authorities say all three "played a key role in international cybercrime." Police seized more than 1,000 servers as part of the operation.

This new phase demonstrates law enforcement's ability to adapt and strike again, even as cyber criminals retool and reorganize.
