Advanced persistent threat (APT) groups continue to use the fog of intense geopolitics to supercharge their campaigns. But beyond these themes, actors are developing individual signature tactics for success. Some groups are innovating and pushing technical boundaries, while others take a more low-tech approach, honing messaging around COVID, the elections and other headlines. These divergent approaches were best represented by two groups in particular, according to the report; DeathStalker and MosaicRegressor. The report added that APT attacks have spiked in recent weeks in Southeast Asia, Middle East and various regions affected by the activities of Chinese-speaking APT groups.
