A previously undisclosed hacking campaign against military targets in Israel and Europe is probably backed by a country that misused security-testing software to cover its tracks and enhance its capability. Researchers coordinated by Israel's independent Computer Emergency Response Team said the attack program relied on software usually sold by Boston-based Core Security to companies and other customers that want to test their own defenses. Criminal hackers have made use of penetration-testing tools for years, other experts said, but most major government-sponsored hacks have specially written tools supplemented by free and widely available programs.
