Happy Monday everyone!
I know this was posted a week or two back, but I wanted to bring it up again in another light. The first time I read it from a technical level looking for the usual TTPs and behaviors but while I was mowing my yard and listening to The Cybersecurity Defender's Podcast by @limacharlieio the participants mentioned something that I didn't even realize the first time I read it. They mentioned that #APT44, or Sandworm, is a very serious adversary due to the amount of capabilities they have and on so many different levels. From espionage to persistence to destructive activity, they are a very refined group and should be taken seriously. Thanks for the great insight! I hope you enjoy and Happy Hunting!

It’s increasingly alarming the public at large continues to have no idea about many state sponsored operators active on US soil and the lack of federal law around privacy here in the United States. The ignorance of our law body around this is even more concerning #intel #security #apt44 #sanctionedoperators

Good day everyone!
I haven't finished this one yet, and if you check it out you will see why, but so far it is a wonderful resource on #APT44. Mandiant (now part of Google Cloud) researches put together what is years of knowledge and research on the group into a single, complete document. I really do wish more of these existed (and if they do please drop them in the comments!) simply due to the amount of information contained within. I hope you enjoy and Happy Hunting!

Mandiant graduates the Russian cyberespionage Sandworm to APT44. Sandworm is publicly attributed to Unit 74455 of the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) by the US Government. APT44 conducts missions like collecting intelligence, sabotaging networks, or conducting information operations. Mandiant's threat actor profile (40 page report) of APT44 offers a look at how cyberwarfare will be played out in future conflicts. IOC included. 🔗 https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/apt44-unearthing-sandworm/
