U.S. sanctions VPN provider and cryptor seller for aiding ransomware…

The U.S. Treasury sanctioned a VPN provider (1VPNS) and a cryptor seller for supplying infrastructure to ransomware gangs, freezing their assets and prohibiting U.S. transactions. The action, coordinated with the UK and following a May 2026 European law enforcement takedown, targets the ransomware supply chain. If you sell infrastructure—VPN, obfuscation, hosting, tooling—to anyone, you're now a sanctions target. Treasury has named the supply chain, not just the attackers; that means your customer due diligence just became your legal liability.
