It?s called Darkleech and it turns out attacks go back at least as far as?August?and effects as many as 20,000 sites.?Mary Landesman at?Cisco indicates?the common issue is SSH.? Also on?Ars Technica, Arbor Networks? Dan Holden presents a compelling argument the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters (QCF) are probably not who they seem to be and they have very deep pockets. Symantec has?connected?last month?s cyber attack in South Korea, Jokra, with?an earlier?Korean incident in?2011.??It?s been a tough week in financial services.
