Russian Stock Exchange Downed by Virus

Via The Inquirer.

SOPHOS CLAIMED the Russian Stock Exchange fell foul of a virus earlier this week.

The firm said the unnamed virus infected a net based computer and forced trading to be suspended.

Sophos said the malware everyone was worried about today - the so-called Kama Sutra virus was a "damp squib".

But, said senior consultant Graham Cluley, the one that attacked the Russian Stck Exchange infiltrated the RTS and could have given hackers access to systems.
