The Shadow Brokers released a group of NSA hacking tools in April, including one that was used to launch this month's massive "WannaCry" cyber attack.

A group that published hacking tools that security experts believe were stolen from the US National Security Agency said on Tuesday it plans to sell a new batch of stolen code in July to customers willing to pay more than US$22,000 (RM94,090) for it.

The Shadow Brokers group said in an announcement on the Internet that it has not yet determined what files will be in the collection. It has previously said it has access to tools for hacking into web mobile handsets and Microsoft Corp's Windows 10 operating system, web browsers and network routers.
