Two Russian web-hosting services that provide cover for ransomware operators, including LockBit, have been sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and international partners.
Media Land (ML), a Russia-based web hosting service that specializes in secrecy for criminals who want to evade detection from law enforcement, was sanctioned by OFAC, Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (ADFAT), and the United Kingdom’s Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), the authorities said.
