Security firm Bitdefender: Group Targets 2 Financial Institutions after a long layoff. Group Fin8 apparently spent several months building and testing the new backdoor before using it in the attacks. The group has waged attacks in the U.S., Canada, South Africa, Puerto Rico, Panama and Italy over the past year. Fin8’s usual goal is attacking point-of-sale systems to obtain credit card information or as a general infostealer. The report did not identify when or where the attacks took place, but there’s some evidence social engineering and spear-phishing attacks may have been used.”]
