Operation QUICSILVER Targets Myanmar Government and IT with QUICAgent Backdoor

Seqrite Labs identified Operation QUICSILVER, a cyber espionage campaign targeting Myanmar's government and IT sectors using graduation ceremony invitation lures to distribute QUICAgent, a Go-based backdoor. The activity is attributed to a China-nexus threat actor.

Why it matters: Myanmar government and IT personnel are at immediate risk of compromise through social engineering; organizations monitoring threats in Southeast Asia should track this actor's infrastructure and lure patterns.
