The Red October cyberespionage campaign has been ongoing for more than five years. The attackers behind it have been focusing their attention on a variety of targets, including embassies, research facilities, military facilities and other high-value institutions. Backing the campaign up were more than 60 C&C domains, but now researchers say that infrastructure is beginning to come apart at the seams. Red October has a massive number of modules involved in the malware operation, with individual groups of modules tasked with reconnaissance, data collection, infecting mobile devices, etc.
