If you work in cybersecurity, you’ve probably heard of the Emotet botnet.

Emotet was so large that it took a joint effort between law enforcement agencies and authorities from Netherlands, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Lithuania, Canada, and Ukraine to allow investigators to take control of the botnet's servers, disrupt the malware's operation, and arrest two operators.
