A threat activity cluster tracked as Earth Freybug has been observed using a new malware called UNAPIMON to fly under the radar.
“Earth Freybug is a cyberthreat group that has been active since at least 2012 that focuses on espionage and financially motivated activities,” Trend Micro security researcher Christopher So said in a report published today.
“It has been observed to target organizations from various sectors across different countries.”
The cybersecurity firm has described Earth Freybug as a subset within APT41, a China-linked cyber espionage group that’s also tracked as Axiom, Brass Typhoon (formerly Barium), Bronze Atlas, HOODOO, Wicked Panda, and Winnti.
