Sony 2014 breach linked to $81m Bangladesh Bank cyber heist

Security firm BAE Systems’ analysis of the malware used in the $81m cyber theft from Bangladesh Bank in March has turned up links to the tools used in the 2014 attack on Sony Pictures.

BAE published its analysis on Friday shortly after payment network SWIFT announced that a second unnamed banking customer had been hit with malware to compromise the bank’s use of the SWIFT messaging system.
