Security researchers have identified ‘strong links’ between recent Swift bank attacks and Sony Pictures hacks of 2014. One of the attacks was foiled by a typo, and another was announced on Friday. The hackers used malware called evtdiag.exe, which allowed them to change records on the Swift financial messaging system in order to hide what they were up to. The two hacks used identical techniques to wipe files from targeted computers. As a result, the researchers believe that the same coder is central to these attacks.”]
