MICROSOFT TAPS UK COURTS TO DISMANTLE CYBERCRIME HOST REDVDS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Microsoft coordinated civil actions in the US and UK to take down RedVDS, a cybercrime-as-a-service provider that rents cheap virtual servers, fueling large-scale phishing and fraud campaigns worldwide and causing at least $40 million in reported US losses. The operation involves domain seizures, infrastructure disruption, and collaboration with Europol, German authorities, and victim organizations like H2-Pharma and a Florida condo association.
