During an analysis of the attacks made on July 2019 against the South Korean government
agencies, ASEC (AhnLab Security Emergency-response Center) observed a series of activities
suspected as targeted email attacks. Although these attacks did not exploit a new weakness
or use a high-level of attack methods, it was highlighted due to its activity of targeting specific
