The Fall of XSS Forum: From DaMaGeLaB to the 2025 takedown

XSS Forum, a prominent Russian-language cybercrime marketplace known for its origins with the handle DaMaGeLaB, was taken down in 2025. Ransomnews published a detailed analysis covering the forum's history from its creation through its seizure.

Why it matters: Practitioners should monitor the takedown for insights into how a major cybercrime infrastructure was dismantled and what alternative platforms actors may migrate to.
