The recently identified Dark Pink advanced persistent threat (APT) group is likely behind a fresh set of KamiKakaBot malware attacks on ASEAN governments and military entities, according to Netherlands-based cybersecurity company ElecticIQ.
The attacks, which took place in February, were “almost identical” to those reported by Russia-based cybersecurity firm Group-IB on January 11, 2023, ElectricIQ said. Multiple overlapping techniques used in the campaigns helped EclecticIQ analysts to attribute the recent attacks as likely to be the work of the Dark Pink APT group.
