Abstract

“ On June 30th 2014, Symantec Security Response released a whitepaper detailing an ongoing cyber espionage campaign dubbed Dragonfly (aka Energetic Bear). The attackers appear to have been in operation since at least 2011. They managed to compromise a number of strategically important organizations for spying purposes and could have caused damage or disruption to energy supplies in affected countries. The two primary tools the group uses are Remote Access Trojans (RAT) named Backdoor.Oldrea and Trojan.Karagany.
