To tell this tale completely would take a book the size of The Bible, but it’s useful to note that the history of Darkode — formerly darkode[dot]com — traces several distinct epochs that somewhat neatly track the rise and fall of the forum’s various leaders. What follows is a brief series of dossiers on those leaders, as well as a look at who these people are in real life.

In one of the more surprising twists in the case, FORBES understands that one of those charged spent two summers interning as a mobile malware researcher at FireEye, a top US cybersecurity firm that’s received investment from the CIA’s In-Q-Tel, Goldman Sachs and Sequoia Capital, and has helped numerous companies recover from major breaches, including that of Sony Pictures last year. That same individual, 20-year-old Morgan Culbertson, has been accused of creating and selling the Dendroid malware, targeted at Google GOOGL -0.08%’s Android operating system. The US Attorney for Western District of Pennsylvania confirmed to FORBES the accused was the same Morgan Culbertson as the one listed on LinkedIn here. According to that page and court filings, he was selling his malware at the same time as working at FireEye.

I'm glad they did that.
Darkode has become a mess in the last few years.
