Hackers breached 3 US antivirus companies, researchers reveal

In a report published Thursday, researchers at the threat-research company Advanced Intelligence (AdvIntel) revealed that a collective of Russian and English-speaking hackers are actively marketing the spoils of data breaches at three US-based antivirus software vendors. The collective, calling itself “Fxmsp,” is selling both source code and network access to the companies for $300,000 and is providing samples that show strong evidence of the validity of its claims. And the group offered privately to sell the source code and network access to all three companies for “over $300,000,” the researchers said.
