Spanish police have arrested the instigators of a massive bot-net
As reported by the BBC, the police of Spain caught three instigators of the bot-net Mariposa. It is estimated that bot-no consists of 13 million infected machines, in about 190 countries. Infected cars belong to more than half of the Fortune 1000 companies, as well as about 40 large banks.
The owners of the bot-neta are Spanish citizens who have not previously been prosecuted for cyber crimes. The first of them was caught in February, when he ran the bot net without bothering to disguise his real address. Materials from his computer lead the investigators to other owners.
Other arrests may follow.
