A list of the most dangerous, effective, and most well-known malware strains that have been developed by the cyber-security units of various countries' intelligence and military branches.
Considered the most advanced malware family ever developed by a nation-state actor, Regin has been developed by the NSA, and shared with some of its Five Eyes partners (primarily with the GCHQ). It's existence has been publicly disclosed in 2014, but the earliest samples date back to 2011, with some suspicions that the malware had been created as early as 2003.
Known cases where Regin has been deployed in the wild include Belgian telco Belgacom, against the German government, and, the most recent case, Russian search giant Yandex.
At the technical level, security researchers view Regin as the most advanced malware framework to date, with modules for tens of features, with most designed around surveillance operations and staying undetected on infected hosts.
