North Korean Hackers Use New Linux Malware to Target ATMs

North Korean hackers are using a new malware called FASTCash to target ATM networks, specifically those running on the Linux operating system.

This malware can intercept and manipulate transaction messages, allowing hackers to authorize fraudulent withdrawals from ATMs.

The new Linux version of FASTCash is a significant development, as it expands the malware's reach beyond its original targets of Unix and Windows systems.

Security experts are urging organizations to implement strong security measures and monitor their networks for signs of this malware.
