Matthew Broersma reports:
Quote:The FBI is aware of the identity of at least a dozen members of the aggressive hacking gang behind recent cyber break-ins at casino operators MGM Resorts International and Caesars Entertainment, with the hackers being based in Western countries including the United States, cybercrime experts have said.
The fact that some of the members of the English-speaking attack group live in the US adds to confusion over why the FBI has not yet acted to arrest them, several experts told Reuters.
The head of one cyber-security group called the situation a “failure” by law enforcement, while the chief executive of another speculated that it resulted from a shortage of FBI cyber agents.
The attack group is known by various names, including Okta, 0ktapus, Scatter Swine, UNC3944, Octo Tempest and Scattered Spider.

The FBI isn't saying they know the identities. It's other people who are aware of the investigations and their progress that are revealing that now . FBI is probably very unhappy that this has been disclosed publicly.
