A bog standard attack aimed at planting a cryptocurrency miner has been found to be using advanced targeted attack tools as well, the security firm Trend Micro says, pointing out that this behaviour marks a departure from the norm.

Three years after it was first reported by Russian security firm Kaspersky ((formerly Kaspersky Lab), Google has suddenly decided to confirm a report that the firmware updates of some Android devices were compromised through their supply chain so that they could be infected with malware.

From "Kaspersky Lab" to "Kaspersky", the company has been protecting its customers for more than two decades, and has transformed from anti-virus vendor to a global security leader where in today's world, the sky's no longer the limit.
