Duqu, the infamous malware from the Stuxnet family, made its return. First discovered in October 2011, Duqu was actively spying on digital certificate issuing authority in Hungary. As soon as it was exposed, the malware was abandoned by its originators. Information security companies added it to a “blacklist” database of anti-virus software. After that initial discovery, Duqu had been out of the spotlight for almost four years, until one of the biggest names in cyber-security, Kaspersky Lab, announced that it had detected the presence of the Duqu malware. On June 10, 2015, Kaspersky Lab...
