"Phishing Targets Ukrainian Battlefield Awareness Tool Users"
The Ukrainian military agency that recently debuted a battlefield situational awareness technology alerted the Ukrainian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-UA) about a phishing campaign in which the operators seek to steal files and Internet browser data. CERT-UA stated that the campaign targeted users of the situational awareness tool, called Delta by the Center for Innovations and Development of Defense Technologies within the Ministry of Defense. Delta is a digital map that can be accessed on different platforms, such as a smartphone. The tool is said to provide a comprehensive digital image of the battlefield by integrating data from several sources, such as intelligence and sensors. The center informed CERT-UA about the phishing effort on December 17, resulting in the team issuing a warning. The phishing lure, which originated from a hacked Ministry of Defense email address, instructed victims to update their Delta certificates to continue access. The phishing email has a PDF file purportedly giving additional instructions, as well as an embedded link that, when clicked, led to a phishing website resembling the official Delta login page. This article continues to discuss the phishing campaign targeting users of the Delta battlefield situational awareness tool.
