A new custom developed backdoor program has been used in highly targeted attacks against organizations from Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and the U.S. over the past year. Malware researchers from Symantec first came across the program in August 2015. The program’s creators went to great lengths to disguise the malware’s activities. Dripion allows attackers to steal information and files from infected computers, as well as upload new files and execute them. It is installed on computers by another malicious program called Blugger, which uses encryption to hide its communications.”]
