The IT security company Trend Micro has recently publishednew information according to which the so-called BlackEnergy malware that affected two power facilities in Ukraine in December last year seems to have also affected a mining company and a large railway operator in the country. Based on its research, Trend Micro notes that it has reasons to believe that 'the same actors are likely involved in some regard to these two [new victims] and to those behind the Ukrainian power attack. There is remarkable overlap between the malware used, infrastructure, naming conventions, and to some degree, the timing of use for this malware [...].' The company also advises organisations in all sector to pay attention to BlackEnergy and to be prepared to defend themselves from similar attacks.
