The new malware is referred to here as Cyclops Blink and has been deployed\nsince at least June 2019, fourteen months after VPNFilter was disrupted. In common\nwith VPNFilter, Cyclops Blink deployment also appears indiscriminate and widespread.\nThe actor has so far primarily deployed Cyclops Blink to WatchGuard devices, but it is\nlikely that Sandworm would be capable of compiling the malware for other architectures\nand firmware.\nInformation\nMITRE ATT\u0026CK Malpedia Last change to this tool card: 30 December 2022\nDownload this tool card in JSON format\nAll groups using tool Cyclops Blink\nChanged Name Country Observed\nhttps://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=c097a8f7-313e-4d79-94b1-1f09d3013be7\nPage 1 of 2\n\nAPT groups\r\n  Sandworm Team, Iron Viking, Voodoo Bear 2009-Dec 2024\r\n1 group listed (1 APT, 0 other, 0 unknown)\r\nSource: https://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=c097a8f7-313e-4d79-94b1-1f09d3013be7\r\nhttps://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=c097a8f7-313e-4d79-94b1-1f09d3013be7\r\nPage 2 of 2",
