License your personalised malware today

Some Russian companies license malware these days, you can order e.g. a personalised (read: targeted) key logger, and attack some competing company with it.

"Because of this shift in malware to targeted industrial espionage, there is a good chance that the spyware will never make it to the labs of Symantec, McAfee, F-Secure and the others. These aren't viruses floating around on the Internet. They are aimed at one particular target, so the antivirus vendors are less likely to get a sample of the malicious code, said Sunner."

Add a customer support contract on top, and you have an excellent new way of getting secrets out of your environment; this is a business model that is completely new to me! (off course you can only run such a business in Russia or the likes..)
