An international law enforcement operation has dismantled AVCheck, a service used by cybercriminals to test whether their malware is detected by commercial antivirus software before deployment. AVCheck allowed cybercriminals to check the effectiveness of their malware against security solutions, thereby facilitating their illegal activities. The operation was conducted by law enforcement agencies from several countries, aiming to disrupt the activities of cybercriminals by depriving them of a crucial tool for their operations.
