GopherWhisper: A burrow full of malware

ESET Research identified a new China-aligned advanced persistent threat (APT) group named GopherWhisper that specifically targets Mongolian governmental institutions. The discovery represents an emerging threat actor with regional focus on state-level systems.

Why it matters: Mongolian government agencies and their security teams need to assess exposure to this APT group's tools and tactics; organizations with ties to Mongolia or Central Asian geopolitics should monitor threat intelligence on GopherWhisper's indicators and methods.
