Kremlin-backed hackers are targeting foreign embassies in Moscow, Microsoft warned.
Russian internet service providers are obliged to work with the government, and attackers use them to plant malware on diplomats’ computers, apparently allowing them to see passwords and bank detailsand to change what users see, perhaps showing them fake login pages. The group behind the effort is believed to be a Russian security service unit, and among “the world’s most active and sophisticated state-sponsored hacking groups,” said Ars Technica.
