A new phishing campaign is targeting industrial organizations in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region using a dangerous malware called FatalRAT. Hackers are using Chinese cloud services to deliver the malware, making it harder to detect. The attack mainly targets government agencies, manufacturing, IT, telecommunications, healthcare, energy, and logistics companies in countries like Taiwan, Malaysia, China, Japan, and more.
