It doesnt help that theres a current shortage of security professionals with the skills needed to address these types of issues. So doing it right will almost certainly not be easy or cheap. But attacks of the variety suffered by Kaspersky are showing every sign of continuing (we predicted that back in December in our 10 Trends That Will Shape Financial Services in 2009 report). At the industrys present level of readiness, Ill be pretty surprised if a bank doesnt get hit at some point.
Remember TDSS?"The use of such sophisticated malware as TDSS testifies that cybercriminals are getting more and more interested in Bitcoin, and the growing interest correlates with growing amounts of money 'earned' by bad guys," said Kaspersky Lab expert Sergey Golovanov.
