Found on The Register on Monday, 10 November 2014
Kaspersky Labs' Global Research & Analysis Team has issued a warning about an advanced persistent threat designed by a crew called Darkhotel, who target top execs as they relax in plush hotel rooms.
So far, the malware has been used to target a number of different industries including electronics firms, hedge funds, big pharma companies and defence organisations.
Industrial espionage seems to pay well.
