Full report by researchers:A sophisticated botnet campaign named FritzFrog has been discovered breaching SSH servers around the world, since at least January 2020.
Written in Golang, FritzFrog is both a worm and a botnet that targets government, education, and finance sectors.
The attack has already managed to infiltrate over 500 servers in the U.S. and Europe, of universities and a railway company.
