Russia's Central Bank said hackers stole more than $31 million from correspondent accounts, as Russia's main security agency warned of cyberattacks aimed at destabilizing the country's banking system.
The bank's announcement, December 2, was the latest example of growing number of cyber attacks that have targeted financial institutions worldwide.
Central Bank official Artyom Sychyov revealed the losses at a briefing in Moscow, saying that the hackers had attempted to steal about 5 billion rubles (US$78 million).
A bank report released earlier December 2 described hackers breaking into accounts there by faking a client's credentials, but provided few other details.
