The UK and the US have exposed "malicious cyber campaigns" by rival states against universities, pharmaceutical companies and other healthcare organisations involved in the coronavirus response.

Laboratories doing research on COVID-19 vaccines are also among those being targeted.

The joint alert does not name countries behind the attacks, but they are understood to include China, Russia and Iran, as well as others.

There has not been a known successful attack on a UK institute.

Staff at healthcare and medical research organisations were on Tuesday advised to change any passwords that could be reasonably guessed.

It comes after the UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) discovered large-scale "password spraying" campaigns.

This is the term given to attempts to access a large number of accounts using commonly-known passwords.

Not shocked at all, the big 3 are up to their tricks again. Trying to steal Western lead Wuhan flu research and launch disinformation campaigns.

This is all a coordinate attack on the West since the start from authoritarian governments.
