An hacking group which conducts cyber espionage campaigns and ransomware attacks is targeting organisations in Europe and the United States.
Cybersecurity researchers at Secureworks have detailed a string of cyber attacks involving ransomware and data theft which took place in early 2022 to an Iranian hacking group they refer to as Cobalt Mirage – also known as APT35, Charming Kitten, Phosphorus and TA453 by other research groups.
Among the attacks is an incident targeting a US local government network in March 2022, which Secureworks researchers have attributed to Cobalt Mirage due to hallmarks of previously uncovered attacks by the group.
