🕵️‍♀️ Bitdefender uncovered a cyber-espionage campaign using virtual machines as a stealth layer.

The group, dubbed Curly COMrades, used Hyper-V to deploy lightweight Linux VMs that ran custom malware while staying invisible to Windows-based defenses.

Targets: government & energy networks in Georgia and Moldova.

Focus: persistence, stealth, and low detection footprint.

💬 How should defenders monitor virtualization layers without overextending detection fatigue?
