币界网报道:The U.S. Treasury Department sanctioned Russia-based AEZA Group and its founder, Ilya Sachkov, for allegedly supporting global cybercrime operations. The sanctions target AEZA's involvement in ransomware attacks, money laundering, and facilitating illegal financial transactions for cybercriminals. Treasury officials stated the group provided infrastructure and services enabling malicious cyber activities worldwide. The sanctions freeze U.S.-based assets and prohibit American entities from transacting with AEZA or Sachkov. This action is part of broader U.S. efforts to disrupt cybercrime networks with ties to Russia. AEZA has previously denied any illegal activities, claiming to operate legitimate cybersecurity services.
