KIEV, Ukraine — Ukrainian police on Tuesday seized the servers of an accounting software firm suspected of spreading a malware virus the crippled computer systems at major companies around the world last week, a senior police official said. As part of an investigation into one of the largest recent cyber attacks, the servers of Ukraine's most popular accounting software, M.E.Doc were seized by Ukrainian police Tuesday, Reuters reported, citing the head of Ukraine's Cyber Police, Sergey Demedyuk. Although they are still trying to establish who was behind last week's attack, Ukrainian intelligence officials and security firms have said some of the initial infections were spread via a malicious update issued by M.E.Doc, allegations that the company's owners deny.
