📌Binance has revealed new details about the hack that led to the theft of $6.3 billion worth of cryptocurrency, following an operation whose preparations lasted about five months and involved hacking engineers’ devices using malware and a fake job interview.
📌According to an initial report published by the company and cited by Reuters, the operation began last June with the hacking of a computer belonging to a wallet engineer. Another engineer was then lured in September through a fake job interview to download malicious code.
📌On October 20, the attackers used the compromised devices and an internal artificial intelligence tool to access the systems of other engineers.
📌On October 29, the attackers carried out the theft. The unauthorized transfers continued for nearly four hours, while Binance announced that it had frozen or intercepted assets worth about $2.85 billion.
