IDG News Service - Cybercriminals have stolen payment card data from six
more U.S. retailers using similar point-of-sale malware that compromised
Target, a computer crime intelligence company said Friday.
.
The conclusion comes from a study of members-only forums where
cybercriminals buy and sell data and malicious software tools, said Dan
Clements, president of IntelCrawler, which conducted the analysis.
.
The retailers have not been publicly named, but IntelCrawler is providing
technical information related to the breaches to law enforcement, Clements
said in a telephone interview Friday.
.
IntelCrawler has also identified a 17-year-old Russian who it says created
the BlackPOS malware, which intercepts unencrypted payment card data after
a card is swiped. Security experts believe malware based on BlackPOS was
used against Target.
.
The teenager, who goes by the online nickname "ree4," sold more than 40
copies of BlackPOS to cybercriminals in Eastern Europe and elsewhere,
according to forum postings IntelCrawler analyzed.
.
Clements said IntelCrawler is "90 percent" sure of its finding, based on
the forum postings and sources it communicated with.
.
The forum posts indicate the teenager sold the malware for US$2,000 or for
a share of the profits that came from monetizing stolen payment card
details, Clements said.
.
BlackPOS was also sold to "carding" websites such as .rescator,
Track2.name and Privateservices.biz that trade in stolen card details,
according to IntelCrawler.
