Spear Phishing Campaign Targets Palestinian Law Enforcement
Security Week | June 21, 2017
Palestinian law enforcement agencies and other targets within Palestine were targeted in a spear phishing campaign delivering malware to remotely control infected systems, Talos researchers reveal. The actor behind this campaign “has appeared to have used genuine documents stolen from Palestinian sources as well as a controversial music video as part of the attack,” Talos says. The attacker also referenced TV show characters and included German language words within the attack, researchers discovered.
