Iranian state-sponsored threat actor APT33 has adopted new tools and reassigned key domain infrastructure, researchers say. The group has been in headlines due to increased cyber-related tensions between the U.S. and Iran this past month. Researchers track APT 33 s cyberespionage activity back to 2013. The Iranian threat actor is known to target nations in the Middle East, but has also launched attacks against U.K., South Korean and European businesses. Researchers warn that these crucial changes point to future widespread cyrerespionage efforts, and urged firms to monitor their networks.
