The FBI and other agencies revealed new intelligence on Fox Kitten, an Iran-based threat actor known for infiltrating global organizations and aiding ransomware affiliates.
Fox Kitten, associated with the Iranian government, has conducted numerous network intrusions since 2017, targeting U.S. institutions including schools and healthcare facilities.
The group's activity extends beyond cyberespionage; their 2020 operation 'Pay2Key' illustrates their potential for diverse cybercriminal objectives beyond traditional intelligence gathering.
Utilizing an Iranian IT company's name as a cover, Fox Kitten strategically infiltrates networks, gathering sensitive data, including exploiting vulnerabilities in Virtual Private Network appliances.
