Good day everyone!

Check Point Software researchers produced another great article that involves #APT29 and #phishing and a little bit of masquerading. This phishing campaign targeted European diplomatic entities that distributes fake invitations to diplomatic events and appears to be a continuation of a previous campaign run by the same actors. These phishing emails utilized a backdoor known as #Wineloader and also employs a new loader #Grapeloader. There is a lot to unpack here and I hope you enjoy!
