Industrial, manufacturing, financial, trading, travel, and government organizations in the U.S., Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Dominican Republic, Spain, and Portugal have been targeted with new attacks by the TA588 cybercrime operation distributing the Venom RAT malware, The Hacker News reports. TA588, which was previously known for targeting Latin America with the Revenge RAT, Vjw0rm, and Loda RAT payloads, delivered phishing emails to facilitate compromise with Venom RAT, which would then enable data exfiltration and remote system control, according to Perception Point researcher Idan Tarab.
