Hackers stole US$81 million from Bangladesh central bank earlier this year through rogue SWIFT transfers. Most of the banks are from Southeast Asia but include banks in the Philippines and New Zealand. The Bangladesh bank heist was pulled off with the help of custom malware that was designed to interfere with the software used by banks to perform transactions on the SWIFT global financial network. Similar malware was later found on the systems of a bank in Vietnam and a number of other banks have been targeted in the past two years.”]
