Lulz groups Security and Anonymous hackers caused “widespread chaos” during the quarter ended June 30 and malware “spread considerably,” said Wednesday the investigation unit of Panda Security.
“This quarter has been one of the worst ever recorded,” said the report by PandaLabs.
“The number of attacks on large companies and organizations has triggered alarm signals and systems for companies that until now were considered safe from hackers have been victims of crime”, he added.
Among the victims of software piracy are the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Department of Defense U.S., or companies Sony, Sega and Citigroup.
According to PandaLabs, there was a significant spread of virus to computers in homes around the world. The researchers determined that an average of 42 new types of malicious software, known as “malware”, were created by minute during the quarter just ended.
China tops the list of countries with higher rates of contamination by malware, with 61.33% of contaminated equipment, according to estimates by PandaLabs.
Meanwhile, the United States and much of Europe is near the global average of 39.79%.
For its part, Sweden had the lowest incidence of malware infections to 27.29%, followed by Switzerland and Norway, both with more than 29%.
On the other hand, last quarter also made plain blurry lines between online activism or “hacktivism” and cyber attacks.
“It seems the only way the group Anonymous is protesting is committing illegal acts,” the report said.

LulzSec said the June 26 attacks have made Internet gaming companies, police and even the CIA website.
“Over the past 50 days have been disturbing and exposing corporations, governments, often to the general population because we only (…)” announced the group.
While it remains to be seen whether the group truly stop generating network disturbances, it is unlikely that the police abandon its efforts to locate them.
In the days before his farewell message, the group released hundreds of documents from the Department of Public Safety Arizona (Southwest).
The documents include information on drug cartels, street gangs, informants, border patrol operations and the names and addresses of members of the Arizona Highway Patrol.
