A spear-phishing campaign targeted a U.S. government agency for several months last year using emails with content about North Korea geopolitics as a lure, according to an analysis from Palo Alto Networks’ Unit 42.
The campaign, which the researchers dubbed “Fractured Statue,” was active between July and October 2019, the analysis found. It targeted five employees at a U.S. government agency – which the report did not identify – as well as two foreign nationals who had professional ties to North Korea, according to the Unit 42 report.
