Fox Kitten Campaign
released on 2020-02-16 @ 06:33:55 PM
During the last quarter of 2019, ClearSky research team has uncovered a widespread Iranian offensive
campaign which we call “Fox Kitten Campaign”; this campaign is being conducted in the last three
years against dozens of companies and organizations in Israel and around the world. Though the
campaign, the attackers succeeded in gaining access and persistent foothold in the networks of
numerous companies and organizations from the IT, Telecommunication, Oil and Gas, Aviation,
Government, and Security sectors around the world.
We estimate the campaign revealed in this report to be among Iran’s most continuous and
comprehensive campaigns revealed until now. Aside from malware, the campaign enfolds an entire
infrastructure dedicated to ensuring long-lasting capability to control and fully access the targets
chosen by the Iranians.
