Major cyber attack against ME region detected

Major cyber-attack against ME region detected A major new cyber-attack that targets users in the Middle East and Eastern Europe has been uncovered by security researchers in the past few days. The ‘Win32.Flame' or ‘W32.Flamer' attack shows high levels of complexity, and appears to be engineered to conduct espionage, early reports show. Researchers say the code for the attack is highly complex, with up to 100 times more code than an average financial malware, is a large file size at 20MB, and is modular in nature, suggesting it may have been developed by several different coders and allowing it to be updated and amended to change tactics.
