PDF A coordinated international law enforcement operation has seized the Web domains and server infrastructure of DoubleVPN, a virtual private network service alleged to have helped criminals launch cyberattacks. DoubleVPN was "heavily advertised" on Russian and English-speaking underground forums as a way for ransomware operators, phishing attackers, and other criminals to mask their locations and identities. It claimed to offer a high level of anonymity with single, double, triple, and even quadruple VPN connections, Europol wrote in a release on the news. Its cheapest VPN option cost $25 USD. Attackers used DoubleVPN to target networks around the world. As part of the takedown, officials seized servers where DoubleVPN had hosted content; its domains were replaced with a law enforcement webpage. The service is no longer available to cybercriminals, they report.
