In the second wave, on the same day, close to $2 million was withdrawn through debit card transactions across India.<\/p>\n<p>Funds were later transferred to Hong Kong through fraudulent SWIFT transactions.<\/p>\n<p>Cosmos Bank chairman Milind Kale said the cyberattack was a global effort as cyberattackers operated from &#8220;22 nations.&#8221; The bank pointed the finger at Canada as the place of origin for many of the fraudulent transactions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/mumbai-news\/rs-94-cr-cosmos-bank-theft-hackers-first-trial-failed-went-unnoticed\/story-8TgMUE8fCc8iLaQnCCAXNM.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Reports also suggest<\/a> that the threat actors failed in their first attempt to compromise the bank&#8217;s systems, but no alert was issued to put the bank on guard against suspicious activity.<\/p>\n<p>No funds have been debited from customer accounts.<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_ZD_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\">\n<\/section>\n<p>On Monday, security researchers from the Securonix Threat Research team <a href=\"https:\/\/www.securonix.com\/securonix-threat-research-cosmos-bank-swift-atm-us13-5-million-cyber-attack-detection-using-security-analytics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gave us a technical glimpse<\/a> into how the bank heist may have been able to take place and suggested that North Korea may be to blame.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/atm-jackpotting-reaches-us-shores\/\">ATM jackpotting reaches US shores<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/atm-hacking-becomes-a-priority-in-ibm-cybersecurity-facilities\/\">ATM hacking becomes a priority in IBM cybersecurity facilities<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/you-can-buy-bitcoin-atm-malware-for-25000-in-the-dark-web\/\">You can buy Bitcoin ATM malware for $25,000 in the Dark Web<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Following a so-called &#8220;patient zero&#8221; compromise of the banking system, potentially through a spear phishing campaign or unauthorized access to a remote control interface, the researchers say that &#8220;multiple targeted malware infections&#8221; were used to compromise the bank&#8217;s internal and ATM infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The malware was used in tandem with an infected central ATM or POS switch. When the first stage of the attack was implemented, the malware likely severed the connection between central systems and the backend core banking system (CBS) to prevent transaction verification.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TechRepublic: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techrepublic.com\/article\/jackpotting-cyberattack-hits-us-forces-atms-to-spit-out-money-for-hackers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jackpotting cyberattack hits US, forces ATMs to spit out money for hackers<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Securonix said that after this connection was compromised, the central malicious switch was used to tamper with target account balances to enable unauthorized ATM withdrawals.<\/p>\n<p>In total, Securonix says 2849 domestic and 12,000 international transactions took place using 450 cloned debit cards in 28 countries throughout the heist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CNET: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/forget-debit-cards-this-is-how-youll-use-your-phone-at-the-atm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forget debit cards.

The researchers say that three fraudulent transactions were then sent to a trader&#8217;s account at Hang Seng Bank in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>The attack has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/applejeus-macos-users-targeted-in-new-lazarus-attacks\/\">attributed to Lazarus<\/a>, a state-sponsored threat group believed to be connected to North Korea&#8217;s ruling party.

Cosmos Bank attack, this was not the typical basic card-not-present (CNP), jackpotting, or blackboxing fraud,&#8221; Securonix said. &#8220;The attack was a more advanced, well-planned, and highly-coordinated operation that focused on the bank&#8217;s infrastructure, effectively bypassing the three main layers of defense per Interpol Banking\/ATM attack mitigation
