The cyber threat group GS7 is conducting an operation called Operation DoppelBrand, targeting financial institutions in the United States. The group uses nearly perfect imitations of corporate portals from major companies to steal access credentials and gain remote control over systems.
These fake sites are designed to deceive employees and users into believing they are on a legitimate portal. The advanced phishing technique employed by GS7 allows them to collect sensitive information and access internal company networks undetected.
