For RedCurl it makes no difference whether to attack a consulting company in Canada or a Russian bank. Because the contents of the victim’s documents and records can be much more valuable than the contents of their own wallets: the consequences of espionage can amount to tens of millions of dollars, despite the lack of direct financial losses.
RedCurl implements various techniques to stay undetected for months. The lack of indicators and technical data about the group makes it easier for the threat actor to remain active. We continue to track new attacks worldwide and therefore included IoCs in the report, which organizations can use to check their networks for signs of RedCurl infections.
