Big WIN against cybercriminals. ๐Ÿ’ช The @FBI and international partners just dismantled Gootloader, malware that infected 25,000+ computers since 2018 and fueled ransomware attacks on at least 44 U.S. victims, costing millions. 100+ servers cleaned. Domains seized. โฌ‡๏ธ
Today, as part of Operation Endgame, the FBI and our partners announced the disruption of the malware and botnet known as Gootloader. Since 2018, Gootloader malware infected more than 25,000 computers worldwide and was used in ransomware attacks against at least 44 U.S.-based victims, resulting in millions of dollars in losses. As part of the coordinated international operation, @FBIDenver and partners removed the Gootloader malware from over 100 computer servers and seized the U.S. domain names used by criminals to deliver and control the malware. Private-sector partner The Shadowserver Foundation assisted with identifying infections, victim notification, and remediation. justice.gov/opa/pr/gootloadeโ€ฆ

.@SecKennedy: โ€œFor Veterans and families following this announcement, we recognize that all research takes time while the need for care continues, these investments pursue additional options, they do not change anybodyโ€™s treatment today. Veterans should consult their Healthcare Providers before making treatment decisions. Any Veteran in Crisis or anyone concerned about a Veteran can call 988 and press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Hotline.โ€

Service members earned more than a PowerPoint on their way out. @USDOL is turning the transition program into a real pipeline to civilian jobs. โฌ‡๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
.@BrianSikma: โ€œWe are making sure that our transition program, that is designed to connect service members with jobs, is not just about checking the box and saying you sat in a room and heard a brief but it is actually a meaningful partnership between @USDOL and the service branches.โ€

On Veterans Day, good news: veteran homelessness has been cut in half over the past 15 years and is falling in most states. No one who served this country should sleep on the street.
