Turkey's financial system has become a target for North Korean-based cyber-criminal groups. Cyber criminal group 'Hayden Cobra' has achieved this goal, security guard McAfee says
The first goal of the crime party was a government-controlled financial institution. The company's name was not mentioned in the report published on Thursday. It is said, "It is seen that Turkey's other government organization involved in trade and commerce has become its target before Turkey was attacked by three major financial institutions."
This is not the first cyber attack on Turkish financial institutions. According to Bloomberg News, at the end of 2016, the country's second largest private financial institution Akbank TAS TS TAS International Bank is attacked by such platform through swift platform trading transactions.
Matthew Sage, founder of Komi Technologies, based in Dubai based Cyber Security Forum, said, "It is difficult to know how much this attack has spread in McPhee's blog post and how many machines have been infected by the government."
