INTERPOL and Group‑IB dismantle PhaaS Sniper Dz — administrator arrested

Colleagues, note: international operation «Ramz» neutralised PhaaS Sniper Dz.

- Operation (Oct 2025–Feb 2026): 201 arrests across 13 MENA countries; admin "Guedz" detained in Algeria.
- Platform (since 2015): ~45,000 victim records, ~20,000 domains, 80 templates in 5 languages; targets included online services and social networks.
- Website disabled and equipment seized; Sniper Dz provided infrastructure free, monetising credential theft and traffic.

Why it matters: reducing availability of off‑the‑shelf phishing tools is beneficial, but the scale of attacks demands stronger monitoring, intelligence‑sharing and staff training.

How do you assess the contribution of such operations to long‑term business protection?
