The FBI and Google-owned Mandiant are actively engaged in efforts to track down and thwart the North Korean hacking group APT45, which is stealing U.S. intelligence and defense secrets.
APT45, previously known as Andariel, has evolved into a sophisticated entity conducting espionage campaigns globally since 2009, expanding into ransomware attacks targeting healthcare providers, financial institutions, and energy companies.
Their focus extends to targeting sensitive information in government nuclear facilities, research institutes, uranium processing, nuclear power plants, and other sectors crucial to North Korea's military and nuclear programs.
Mandiant collaborates with the FBI and other unnamed U.S. agencies to share threat information and track APT45, whose activities include seeking defense data, such as blueprints for missiles, submarines, tanks, fighter aircraft, and shipbuilding technologies.
