Updated: FBI shuts down Hive ransomware gang’s IT infrastructure

The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has seized the website of the Hive ransomware gang after penetrating the group’s computer networks — apparently in Calfornia. The agency said Thursday it penetrated the networks in July, 2022, leading to the capture of decryption keys. Since then it has quietly offered those keys to 300 victims.
