Tag: Bit9 breach

Cyber espionage hackers who broke into security firm Bit9 initially breached the company’s defenses in July
2012, according to evidence being gathered by security experts investigating the incident. Bit9 remains reluctant
to name customers that were impacted by the intrusion, but the custom-made malicious software used in the attack
was deployed last year in highly targeted attacks against U.S. Defense contractors.
Bit9, a company that provides software and network security services to the U.S. government and at least 30
Fortune 100 firms, has suffered an electronic compromise that cuts to the core of its business: helping clients
distinguish known “safe” files from computer viruses and other malicious software.
