SWIFT Confirms Repeat Hack Attacks

SWIFT has issued an alert to customers warning that it’s seen repeat attempts by attackers to subvert its messaging system. The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication is a Belgium-based cooperative of 3,000 organizations that maintains the SWIFT messaging platform. It has released a “mandatory” software update to all customers to help identify related signs of attack or evidence of a breach. The February Bangladesh Bank hack wasn’t the first time that the messaging platform used by banks around the world was subverted by attackers.”]
