Cybercrime gang called “Silence” has been tied to attacks that have so far stolen at least $800,000. The name was first applied to the attackers by Kaspersky Lab, based on its name for a backdoor they used. The gang’s early attacks were amateurish, but it has been growing more sophisticated with each new attack campaign, Group-IB says. As of September 2017, attacks tied to the group had compromised up to 10 banks in Russia, Armenia and Malaysia.”]
