A hacker group “likely” backed by the Chinese regime has focused on non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working on issues relevant to the country for up to five years, according to a recent report.
The cyberespionage group, known as “Bronze President,” used malware to steal data from target networks over a long period of time, suggesting it also sought to monitor the NGOs, U.S.-based cybersecurity firm Secureworks stated in a Dec. 29 report. The group is still active.
