Federal cybersecurity officials have taken control of two internet domains suspected of being part of a prolonged campaign to infiltrate and compromise sensitive government networks. The operation, which follows years of monitoring, marks a direct response to ongoing threats aimed at critical infrastructure and national security systems. Authorities have not yet disclosed the full extent of the operation or the potential impact of the seized domains, leaving questions about the broader scope of the cyber activity. Details on the groups behind the attacks or the methods employed remain under investigation.
