An international law enforcement operation has taken down AVCheck, a service used by cybercriminals to test whether their malware is detected by commercial antivirus software before deploying it in the wild. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/police-takes-down-avcheck-antivirus-site-used-by-cybercriminals/

@deepthoughts10 @BleepingComputer Agreed, AVCheck was used by BlackBasta to check their malware creations. Would be awesome to see scanner[.]to taken down soon as well. Lots of malicious binaries and scripts scanned on scanner[.]to in the Basta chat logs. The screenshot is one of their sample's results pages.
