The Department of Justice alleged on Thursday that Ruslan Aleksandrovich Peretyatko, an officer with the FSB intelligence service, and IT worker Andrey Stanislavovich Korinets attempted to compromise the computers of employees at multiple U.S. government agencies, including the Department of Defense and Department of Energy, between October 2016 and October 2022.
These emails, which contained malicious domains created by the Callisto Group to harvest victims' credentials, enabled the conspirators to gain unauthorized access and take 'valuable intelligence' from victim's accounts, which has included intelligence related to United States defense, foreign affairs, and security policies, according to the DOJ's indictment.
