Bit9 Breach Began in July 2012

Description : Cyber espionage hackers who broke into security firm Bit9 initially breached the company's defenses in July 2012, according to evidence being gathered by security experts investigating the incident. Bit9 remains reluctant to name customers that were impacted by the intrusion, but the custom-made malicious software used in the attack was deployed last year in highly targeted attacks against U.S. Defense contractors.<div class="crp_related"><h5>Related Posts:</h5><ul><li><a class="crp_title" href="https://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/02/security-firm-bit9-hacked-used-to-spread-malware/">Security Firm Bit9 Hacked, Used to Spread Malware[/url]</li><li><a class="crp_title" href="https://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/02/source-washington-post-also-broadly-infiltrated-by-chinese-hackers-in-2012/">Source: Washington Post Also Broadly Infiltrated By Chinese&hellip;[/url]</li><li><a class="crp_title" href="https://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/01/turkish-registrar-enabled-phishers-to-spoof-google/">Turkish Registrar Enabled Phishers to Spoof Google[/url]</li><li><a class="crp_title" href="https://krebsonsecurity.com/2012/12/chinese-espionage-attacks-against-ruskies/">Espionage Attacks Against Ruskies?[/url]</li><li><a class="crp_title" href="https://krebsonsecurity.com/2012/09/chinese-hackers-blamed-for-intrusion-at-energy-industry-giant-telvent/">Chinese Hackers Blamed for Intrusion at Energy Industry&hellip;[/url]</li></ul></div>
