Security researchers at Group IB analyzed recent attacks that target military, government, and education organizations.

The hacker group is seemingly still active in 2023 and has been conducting activities.

The hacker group was first exposed in January 2023, but that hasn't slowed it down as it continues to conduct campaigns.

There have been additional breaches against the institutions in different parts of the world.

The hackers carried out several commits on the repository throughout  2023, mostly to add or upgrade malware.
