AUTHORITIES in Australia have arrested two men, aged 21 and 23, believed to be associated with TeamPCP, a cybercrime group responsible for a series of software supply chain attacks. The Australian Federal Police (AFP) stated that these individuals created malicious open-source software that targeted thousands of businesses globally. Although the defendants were not named, KrebsOnSecurity revealed the identity of one suspect in June and has maintained communication with him. The report includes insights from interviews with a spokesperson for TeamPCP and discusses evidence that may have contributed to their arrests.
