Kaspersky said Gauss had a specific focus on banking and financial data and its Trojan capability was used to steal detailed information about infected PCs including browser history, cookies, passwords, and system configurations.

"It is also capable of stealing access credentials for various online banking systems and payment methods," said Kaspersky, whose virus detection experts discovered and named Gauss.

In July 2012, command and control servers used by Gauss's unknown originators stopped functioning, according to the statement.

"Analysis of Gauss shows it was designed to steal data from several Lebanese banks including the Bank of Beirut, EBLF, BlomBank, ByblosBank, FransaBank and Credit Libanais," and also "targets users of Citibank and PayPal," it added.
