A Chinese cyber espionage group has been linked to a string of intrusion activities targeting Israeli government institutions, IT providers, and telecommunications companies at least since 2019.
FireEye’s Mandiant threat intelligence arm attributed the campaign to an operator it tracks as “UNC215”, a Chinese espionage operation that’s believed to have singled out organizations around the world dating back as far as 2014, linking the group with “low confidence” to an advanced persistent threat (APT) widely known as APT27, Emissary Panda, or Iron Tiger.
