Description
(Recorded Future) The RedAlpha campaigns began in mid-2017 by targeting the Tibetan
community in India. The latest campaign remains ongoing, with new subdomains
registered in late April 2018. The threat actor utilized a careful combination of victim
reconnaissance and fingerprinting, followed by selective targeting with multi-stage
malware. The malware utilized changed from a reliable custom toolset in the 2017
campaign to a more cautious and spartan approach, ending with commodity malware in
2018. Observing these two campaigns in succession demonstrates the evolution of a
relatively unknown threat actor.
