U.S. Offered $10M for Hacker Just Arrested by Russia

In January 2022, KrebsOnSecurity identified a Russian man named Mikhail Matveev as "Wazawaka," a cybercriminal who was deeply involved in the formation and operation of multiple ransomware groups. The U.S. government indicted Matveev as a top ransomware purveyor a year later, offering $10 million for information leading to his arrest. Last week, the Russian government reportedly arrested Matveev and charged him with creating malware used to extort companies.
