Framingham cybersecurity firm detects new attack in Ukraine

The Framingham-based Internet security firm CyberX said it has spotted a new weapon in the ongoing cyberwar between Russia and Ukraine – a program called BugDrop that is being used to steal vast amounts of sensitive data from Ukrainian businesses and institutions. “It looks very professional … and most important, very successful,” said CyberX co-founder Nir Giller, a former engineer for the Israel Defence Forces cybersecurity unit.
