Just when we thought we read enough about cybercriminality yet another depressing story hits the headlines. This time it is reported by the BBC. The Sinowal infects victims' computers without leaving any trace.
The details of about 500,000 online bank accounts and credit and debit cards have been stolen by a virus described as "one of the most advanced pieces of crimeware ever created".
The Sinowal trojan has been tracked by RSA, which helps to secure networks in many of the largest companies world-wide. RSA said the trojan virus has infected computers all over the planet.
Corporates must take the risk of their desktop and servers being infected. An all-embracing strategy such as STAMP, an iniative currently being promoted by Secure Computing should be carefully considered.
If you'd like to know more about STAMP you can participate in our Webinar to be held on the 21st November at 10.30am GMT. Please contact us to reserve a place.
