Gauss – Nation-state cyber-surveillance meets banking Trojan  
http://www.securelist.com/en/blog?weblogid=208193767

Gauss, a new virus (or worm because its decryption is not done) was  
identified by Kaspersky. The fourth after Stuxnet, Flame and Duqu.

I wondered if it's not time sounding the alarm because it could be  
that many more malware exist but those who created them or the victims  
do not dare talk about for their image and of sovereignty reasons.

What benefits can be envisaged for end users in what appears to be a  
cybernetics war that started  before it was predicted by experts.

Where countries may protest at global level? I believe that ICT  
governance is truly threatened and we may be surprized by all  
implications as for now it's clear that everything is possible in the  
cyberspace.
