In early April, the FBI remotely accessed and disinfected US located devices infected with a new botnet malware attributed to the Russian State hacking outfit, Sandworm. The infected devices were primarily firewall devices from WatchGuard and Asus.
Cyclops Blink came to light in February in a joint advisory released by the UK’s NCSC (National Cyber Security Centre), CISA, NSA, and FBI.
