The group targeted at least 71 Canadian businesses and organizations since the fall of 2021.
Peel Regional Police have confirmed their involvement in the dismantling and domain seizure of the Hive ransomware group as part of a cross-border investigation into numerous cyberattacks, including a data breach at a Peel business.
“This infrastructure takedown will prevent further victimization of the Canadian public and businesses by this criminal operation,” said Peel police news release. Suspects who identified themselves as the Hive ransomware group demanded payment in Bitcoin to decrypt the compromised data.
