The operation BULUT, conducted in Turkey with the support of Europol, led to the arrest of 232 individuals through the exploitation of data from encrypted messaging platforms Sky ECC and ANOM. The information obtained allowed for the dismantling of criminal networks involved in various illegal activities. The platforms Sky ECC and ANOM were used by criminals to communicate securely, but law enforcement managed to access these encrypted communications. This operation has had a significant impact on the fight against organized crime in Europe.
