DRBControl Espionage Operation Hits Gambling, Betting Companies

An advanced threat actor has been targeting gambling and betting companies in multiple regions of the globe with malware that links to two Chinese hacker groups. Researchers at cybersecurity company Trend Micro started painting a larger picture of DRBControl’s activities after analyzing a backdoor used by the group against a company in the Philippines. The mission appears to be cyberespionage, stealing databases and source code from the targets being part of the operation. The actor seems to focus on companies in Southeast Asia but unconfirmed reports say that it also attacks targets in Europe and the Middle East.
