Comments on China's PLA Unit 61398 Working On Kuang Grade Mark Eleven Penetration Program
'When Kuang's good and bellytight with the Tessier-Ashpool core, we're ridin' that through...'- William Gibson, 1984. (Read
the complete story)
"Here are a few more details released by the report:
In an effort to underscore that there are actual individuals behind the keyboard, Mandiant is revealing
three personas that are associated with aPt1 activity:
» The first persona, “UglyGorilla”, has been active in computer network operations since October 2004. His activities
include registering domains attributed to APT1 and authoring malware used in APT1 campaigns. “UglyGorilla”
publicly expressed his interest in China’s “cyber troops” in January 2004.
» The second persona, an actor we call “DOTA”, has registered dozens of email accounts used to conduct social
engineering and spear phishing attacks in support of APT1 campaigns. “DOTA” used a Shanghai phone number
while registering these accounts.
» We have observed both the “UglyGorilla” persona and the “DOTA” persona using the same shared infrastructure,
including FQDNs and IP ranges that we have attributed to APT1.
» The third persona, who uses the nickname “SuperHard,” is the creator or a significant contributor to the AURIGA
and BANGAT malware families which we have observed APT1 and other APT groups use. “SuperHard” discloses
his location to be the Pudong New Area of Shanghai.
