Talk:2015–2016 SWIFT banking hack

To do list
This article needs:


 * Section on where the funds went and implications for money laundering
 * More detailed description of how the security researchers link this to the Sony attacks, Lazarus, and North Korea

What is the right name for this article?
It's too early -- and it never may be totally proven -- to put North Korea in the title. It seems a bit unfair to label them as a SWIFT hack, as the attackers actually hacked the way the member banks govern and secure SWIFT messages. . . that said, the real implication is that the trust in the legitimacy of a SWIFT message suffers. . .

 * As there are no dates whatsoever in the article, and the categories only include 2016, should the article be moved to 2016 SWIFT banking hack? – Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 10:37, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Some of these hacks happened in 2015, according to Reuters. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 15:44, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Interesting, thanks for sharing. :) The Ecuador incident should be added to the article as currently only the 2016 hacks to Bangladesh and Vietnam are mentioned. In any case, a move to the proper endashed variant of the article name will be conducted afterwards. – Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 07:06, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Both done. Somebody with more background knowledge on the subject should check if the addition on Ecuador is okay in that way, though. – Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 08:04, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
