TeamPCP Hackers Arrested for Major Supply Chain Attacks On August 26, 2026, Australian Federal Police arrested two men, Ruben Thomson and Louis Gaebler, linked to the TeamPCP hacking group. This group is notorious for sophisticated supply chain attacks that compromised over 1,000 organizations globally, stealing more than 500,000 credentials and exfiltrating at least 300GB of data.
