  • Hunters International struck many private and public entities, including Tata and Telecom Namibia
  • The group says it is disbanding “in light of recent events”
  • It even released decryption keys for their victims

A major ransomware operation has announced a complete shutdown and the public release of decryption keys – however, some are skeptical that this is the last we’ve seen of this particular group.

The operators, known as Hunters International, published a short announcement on their dark web site, notifying their followers, affiliates, and the wider cybercriminal community, that they will no longer operate.
