Attack campaign infects industrial control systems with BlackEnergy malware

U.S. Department of Homeland Security: BlackEnergy malware targets industrial control systems. BlackEnergy is the same malware that was used by a Russian group dubbed Sandworm to target organizations like the NATO alliance, energy firms and telecommunication companies. Attackers targeted HMI products from three different vendors: GE, Siemens’ SIMATIC WinCC and BroadWin’s WebAccess. GE issued a patch for GE’s Cimplicity HMI in December 2013; Siemens issued an alert about the BlackEnergy campaign.”]
