The United States Department of Justice (DoJ) announced on Thursday it disrupted the work of the international ransomware group Hive, which, as the agency put it, targeted more than 1,500 victims in over 80 countries worldwide and thus earned over $100 million in ransom payments.

The action was conducted mainly by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) together with its partners from Germany and the Netherlands. DoJ Criminal Division Assistant Attorney General Kenneth A. Polite Jr. stressed that "we will continue our investigation and pursue the actors behind Hive until they are brought to justice."
