An advanced hacker group running cyber-espionage campaigns since at least 2010 has been operating stealthily over the past five years. They deliver a new backdoor called Aria-body and use victims infrastructure to carry attacks against other targets. Multiple variants of the malware have been discovered and one of them was recently delivered to the Australian government via a malicious email. Its area of interest remains the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. Targets include ministries of foreign affairs, science and technology in Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, Myanmar and Brunei.
