Two Alleged ‘TeamPCP’ Hackers Arrested in Australia
Matched: Australia
Two Australian men, aged 21 and 23, have been arrested by the Australian Federal Police over alleged ties to TeamPCP, a cybercrime group responsible for a prolonged series of software supply chain attacks. The group embedded malicious code in open source tools, using a self-propagating worm called Shai-Hulud to steal developer credentials and spread further. Investigators identified the 21-year-old as Ruben Thomson of Perth, whose online activity and poor operational security linked him to multiple cybercrime aliases. The pair face 14 combined charges and appeared in Perth Magistrates Court.
