The US Justice Department on Tuesday unsealed an indictment charging three Russian nationals and two companies for allegedly running cybercrime services.
The individuals are Aleksandr Alexandrovich Volosovik, Kirill Andreevich Zatolokin, and Yulia Pankova, and the targeted companies are ML.Cloud and Media Land, whose infrastructure spanned countries such as China, the Netherlands, Finland, and even the United States.
The three suspects are accused of running ML.Cloud and Media Land, which allegedly provided bulletproof hosting services to a wide range of threat actors, including profit-driven gangs and state-sponsored groups.
