Welcome to DBD. On March 8th 2026, DBD celebrated it's sixth anniversary and PRiSM celebrated it's third anniversary. Both projects have made a huge impact on my life and I'd like to thank each and everyone of you who have supported me, with special thanks to those individuals and communities who have helped me build up my knowledge on cybercrime and ransomware over the years. Thanks again for all your continued support. Stay safe. :)
