A Jordanian initial access broker, Feras Albashiti, operating as “r1z,” has pleaded guilty to selling network access to at least 50 companies and malware designed to disable security tools. He faces up to 10 years in prison, with his sentencing scheduled for May, after being identified by the FBI through an undercover operation and linked to a major ransomware attack.
