Blog post on Cyber Espionage Attack Targeting Indian Embassies and Indian Ministry of External Affairs

[Monnappa K A]

Hi All,

I published a blog post today on an Cyber Espionage (APT) campaign where attackers targeted Indian Embassies and Indian Ministry of External Affairs officials using the Uri Terror attack and Kashmir Protest themed spear phishing emails to infect the systems with malware to spy on India's actions related to these Geo-political events. Below is the link to the blog post (containing details of stealth techniques used by the attackers) and indicators. We are providing the indicators so that organizations can use the indicators to detect and investigate this attack campaign. We also reported the attack to the concerned teams.
