An international law enforcement operation has led to the capture of two individuals believed to have created and operated Warzone RAT, a Malware-as-a-Service operation that has been running since at least 2019.
Authorities have detained Daniel Meli, a 27-year-old from Malta, and Prince Onyeoziri Odinakachi, a 33-year-old from Nigeria.
Meli allegedly created and sold the Warzone RAT through its official website at warzone.ws. Odinakachi allegedly worked as a customer support, providing help to the malware's buyers.
