'BusySnake' Infostealer Slithers into Critical Infrastructure Networks

A threat group called Armored Likho has deployed the BusySnake infostealer to compromise government agencies and electrical power entities across Russia, Brazil, and Kazakhstan. The infostealer targets critical infrastructure networks to collect sensitive information from affected organizations.

Why it matters: Critical infrastructure operators in Russia, Brazil, and Kazakhstan face immediate risk of data theft and operational disruption; practitioners should assess whether their organizations have been targeted and review network access logs for BusySnake indicators.
