This is the ultimate security key for professionals.
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.
The Industroyer malware, also known as Crashoverride, is a malware framework developed by Russian state hackers and deployed in December 2016, in the cyber-attacks against Ukraine's power grid.
The attack was successful and cut the power to a part of Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, for an hour. The malware is considered an evolution of previous strains like Havex and BlackEnergy, which had also been used in attacks against Ukraine's power grid. However, unlike Havex and BlackEnergy, which were more like generic Windows malware deployed against systems managing industrial systems, Industroyer contained components specifically designed to interact with Siemens power grid equipment.
