APT28 is one of Russia’s longest-running APTs and its operations date back to at least 2007. The group supports Russia in their strategic operations against the U.S, countries of the former Soviet Union, Europe, and now Asia. These attacks mostly involve cyber crimes against the defense and military of targeted countries. To support Russia’s national interests, APT28 compromises the targeted country’s operation, steals their data, and then leaks it to their government. Going by the aliases Fancy Bear, Pawn Storm, Tsar Team, STRONTIUM, and Sofacy Group, APT28 performs their attacks using a spoofed website and phishing emails containing malicious links.

Recently, researchers gathered and examined a luring document that was used to install Graphite malware that was uniquely connected to APT28.
‘The luring document is a PowerPoint file that uses a code execution mechanism to be activated when the user enters presentation mode and moves the mouse. The code execution performs a PowerShell script that downloads and executes a OneDrive dropper. The latter downloads a payload that extracts and injects a new PE (Portable Executable) file into itself, which research revealed to be a variation of the Graphite malware family, which utilises the Microsoft Graph API and OneDrive for C&C communications.’
