Summary

What do Indian oil tycoons, Middle Eastern government officials, and Qatari, Kashmiri and Sikh political groups all have in common? They are all targets of the behemoth threat actor known by the moniker BAHAMUT. 

Defining BAHAMUT is especially difficult because the group is suspected of re-using other groups’ tools and imitating their tradecraft. BAHAMUT also heavily leverages publicly available tools that further obscure attribution.

BlackBerry have already identified more than a dozen BAHAMUT applications still active in both the Google Play™ Store and the App Store™. BlackBerry have found that BAHAMUT presides over a significant number of fake entities, from social media personae to websites to applications, some of which had no immediately discernible malicious purpose, but which generated original content and seemed to distort the readers’ perception of reality. 

In this webinar, our very own VP Solutions and previous CISO Roger Sels, will delve into one of the most elusive, patient, and effective publicly known threat actors to review the lessons CIOs, CISOS and their teams can draw in order to safeguard their organizations more effectively.
