The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and CISA said that one of the Iranian threat groups behind the destructive attack on the Albanian government's network in July lurked inside its systems for roughly 14 months.

"A FBI investigation indicates Iranian state cyber actors acquired initial access to the victim's network approximately 14 months before launching the destructive cyber attack, which included a ransomware-style file encryptor and disk wiping malware," the two agencies revealed in a joint advisory published today.
