Hackers part of Armada Collective, says IT security specialist

PETALING JAYA: Hackers who incapacitated several local brokerage firms are believed to belong to the Armada Collective, according to IT security specialist LGMS.

It based this on the ransom e-mail it managed to obtain, although LGMS founder C.F. Fong said it could just be a group of copycat hackers, maybe even one operating from Malaysia.
