Microsoft's threat intelligence team published new research into a Russian hacking subgroup within Seashell Blizzard and its "BadPilot" project. Seashell Blizzard conducts global activities on behalf of the GRU.
BadPilot is an initial access operation focused on breaching and gaining a foothold in victim networks. In 2022, it set its sights almost entirely on Ukraine, then broadened its hacking in 2023-2024 to home in on victims in the US, UK, Canada and Australia. Targets are typically energy, oil and gas, telecommunications, shipping, logistics, arms manufacturing and government agencies.
