Another member of the Trickbot malware crew now faces a lengthy prison sentence amid US law enforcement’s ongoing search for its leading members.
Russian national Vladimir Dunaev, 40, faces a maximum sentence of 35 years in prison for his involvement in the now-shuttered Trickbot malware, which was often used to deploy ransomware.
Pleading guilty to the charges against him on Thursday, Dunaev was one of the developers behind Trickbot – malware that was used to attack various organizations including hospitals and schools.
