A dangerous new strain of malware has been discovered, able to steal banking credentials without alerting users to the interception.

Named Dyre, or Dyreza, the Trojan software was discovered by researchers investigating a phishing scam that was spreading via Dropbox. It is believed to be a completely new family of malware, similar to but sufficiently distinct from, the Zeus malware.
