LONDON (Reuters) - A newly discovered piece of destructive software found circulating in Ukraine has hit hundreds of computers, researchers at cybersecurity firm ESET said on Wednesday.
In a series of statements https://twitter.com/ESETresearch/status/1496581903205511181 posted to Twitter, the company said the data-wiping program had been "installed on hundreds of machines in the country," an attack it said had likely been in the works for the past couple of months.
