Blackcat ransomware site reportedly seized but UK agency denies responsibility
website used by hackers responsible for a breach at UnitedHealth Group (UNH.N), opens new tab has been replaced by a notice saying it has been seized by international law enforcement.

A message posted to the website of the Blackcat hacking gang on Tuesday said it had been impounded "as part of a coordinated law enforcement action" by U.S. authorities and other law enforcement agencies.

Malvertising Used as Entry Vector for BlackCat Actors Also Leverage SpyBoy Terminator
We found that malicious actors used malvertising to distribute malware via cloned webpages of legitimate organizations. The distribution involved a webpage of the well-known application WinSCP, an open-source Windows application for file transfer. We were able to identify that this activity led to a BlackCat (aka ALPHV) infection, and actors also used SpyBoy, a terminator that tampers with protection provided by agents.
