Trump, Biden Campaign Staffers Targeted By APT Phishing Emails

Google TAG researchers warn that APT groups are targeting campaign staffers for both Donald Trump and Joe Biden with phishing emails. A China-linked APT group targeted Biden s campaign staff, while an Iran-linked group targeted Trump’s campaign staff. In both incidents, the attackers took aim at staffers personal emails, and there was no evidence that the attempts were successful. The impacts of a successful phishing attack against presidential campaign staffers could be particularly dangerous as the Nov. 3 elections draw closer.
