The hackers behind ‘the most murderous malware’ in the world are back and have infected a key infrastructure facility, security analysts say.
Researchers at the firm FireEye say traces of a dangerous malware called Triton have cropped up for the second time since since 2017, when hackers leveraged it to gain control of critical processes at an oil plant in Saudi Arabia.
In a report, the firm did not reveal exactly where the attack happened, who the target was, or even how much damage, if any, was done, thought it did highlight some of the group’s apparent intentions.
