Plaintiffs Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”), FS-ISAC, Inc. (“FS-ISAC”), and HEALTH-ISAC, Inc. (“H-ISAC”) have sued Defendants Denis Malikov and John Does 1-2 associated with the domains listed in the documents set forth herein. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants have violated Federal and state law by hosting a cybercriminal operation through these domains, causing unlawful intrusion into Plaintiffs customers’ and member organizations’ computers and computing devices; and intellectual property violations to the injury of Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs’ customers and member organizations. Plaintiffs seek a preliminary injunction directing the domain registrars and registries associated with these domains to take all steps necessary to disable access to and operation of these domains to ensure that changes or access to the domains cannot be made absent a court order and that all content and material associated with these domains are to be isolated and preserved pending resolution of the dispute. Plaintiffs seek a permanent injunction, other equitable relief and damages. Full copies of the pleading documents are available at www.noticeofpleadings.com/zloader.
