The FBI has taken down the hacking forum Breach Forums, which was used to leak stolen data. This is not the first time the FBI has taken action against such forums. The article mentions previous instances where the FBI and international partners have collaborated to bring down cybercriminals. The FBI is urging anyone who has had dealings with the forum to come forward and assist in the investigation. The article also highlights the involvement of big companies like AT&T, 23andMe, HP Enterprise, Home Depot, and Dell in the stolen data. The FBI's capabilities in tracking and capturing cybercriminals are impressive, and they have access to resources that the civilian sector does not.
