Hello, tech enthusiasts! Gather around as we dive into a story that’s sure to tickle your funny bone and ignite your tech fervor.

This past weekend, a monumental hack struck the notorious Everest ransomware gang’s leak site. Instead of the usual ominous stolen files, visitors were greeted with a cheeky message: “Don’t do crime, CRIME IS BAD xoxo from Prague.” Talk about a plot twist!

Not much is known yet about any possible data breach the gang might have suffered, but the defacement remains a sight to behold.

Everest, a key player in the ransomware game since 2020, has raked in infamy with high-profile hacks and major data breaches—but this time, they’ve been struck by their own medicine.

Interestingly enough, as ransomware and extortion cases spike, the situation for the perpetrators is looking grim. Reports indicate a sharp decline in the number of businesses bending to hefty ransom demands in 2024. It seems more folks are standing their ground against these cyber bullies!

Despite law enforcement’s efforts to thwart groups like Everest, it looks like their mischief may have met its match. Let’s hope this serves as a lesson for all: crime indeed doesn’t pay!
