Google has disrupted infrastructure linked to the notorious CryptBot malware, which the company claims has stolen data from hundreds of thousands of browser users in the past year alone.

CryptBot is malicious information-stealing malware first discovered in 2019. The infostealer malware is typically distributed by spoofed websites masquerading as legitimate software sites that offer free downloads. Once installed, the malware steals sensitive information from infected computers, like passwords, cookies, cryptocurrency wallets and credit card information.
