Devastating Malware For Hacking Banking Accounts May Be Linked To Hamas

Devastating malware that lets criminals hack into banking accounts, steal data, and spy on computer users is suspected of being linked to terrorist group Hamas‘ cyberwarfare division.

The so-called “Remote Administration Tool,” or RAT, is called Escanor and first surfaced on the Dark Web in January. It can infect computers through Microsoft Office documents, according to Resecurity, which protects Fortune 500 companies. Computers have reportedly been infected in the U.S., Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Egypt, Mexico, Singapore, and Israel.
