Ransomware gang that hit meat supplier mysteriously vanishes from the internet

REvil, the ransomware gang that attacked meat supplier JBS Foods this spring and a major IT software vendor this month, has mysteriously vanished from the internet, according to cybersecurity experts tracking the group.

Websites and other infrastructure belonging to the cybercriminal gang, which is believed to operate from Eastern Europe or Russia, went dark on Tuesday as close observers of the group found they were unable to connect to REvil's web page listing its victims. Others said they were unable to connect to the sites REvil uses to communicate with victims and collect ransom payments.
