Who knew Linux servers had a taste for vintage malware? Ebury, the backdoor blast from the past, proves that old threats never truly die—they just take a power nap. Hosting providers, it's time to check under your digital beds, because there's a boogeyman stealing credentials and it's been doing so for more than a decade.
