       linked to a Chinese hacking group has spread to Europe thanks to
       its ability to self propagate over USB thumb drives a
       cybersecurity vendor says. The findings come from Check Point
       which investigatedat a health institution in Europe earlier this
       year. The technical evidence shows the malware bears
       similarities to attacks from a Chinese espionage group dubbed
       Mustang Panda. Check Point traced the infection back to a USB
       drive belonging to an employee at the European hospital. The
       same USB drive was previously taken to a conference in Asia. The
       employee shared his presentation with fellow attendees.
       Using his USB drive. Unfortunately one of his colleagues had an
       infected computer so his own USB drive unknowingly became
       infected as a result Check Point said. AfterUSA Telegram Number

       returning to Europe the
       employee then slotted the USB drive into a hospital computer
       thereby spreading the infection to another continent. Check
       Point suspects the European health institution was merely
       collateral damage and not the intended target. Thats because the
       Chinese hacking group behind the malware Mustang Panda has
       historically targeted countries based in Southeast Asia. Check
       Point points out the incident.

       provides an inthewild sighting of hacking tools that antivirus
       provider Avast described last December in a report about Mustang
       Panda. At the time Avast had uncovered an FTP server the Chinese
       hacking group was using to host its hacking tools which included
       a launcher written in Delphi to install malware on a USB drive.
