BITTER: A TARGETED ATTACK AGAINST PAKISTAN
released on 2016-10-24 @ 10:04:26 PM
Forcepoint Security Labs™ recently encountered a strain of attacks that appear to target Pakistani nationals. We named the attack "BITTER" based on the network communication header used by the latest variant of remote access tool (RAT) used. Our investigation indicates that the campaign has existed since at least November 2013 but has remained active until today. This post intends to share the results of our research.
