According to Foresight News, cybersecurity firm Kaspersky has released a threat report detailing the activities of North Korean hacker group Kimsuky. The group has reportedly been using a malware known as 'Durian' in a series of attacks targeting at least two cryptocurrency companies.
Durian is said to possess comprehensive backdoor capabilities, enabling it to execute delivered commands, download additional files, and exfiltrate files. This sophisticated malware has been instrumental in the hacker group's attacks, demonstrating the increasing threat to cybersecurity in the cryptocurrency sector.
The report from Kaspersky highlights the growing need for robust security measures within the cryptocurrency industry, as it continues to be a prime target for cybercriminals. The use of advanced malware like Durian by hacker groups such as Kimsuky underscores the evolving nature of these threats and the importance of staying ahead in the cybersecurity landscape.
