Recent spearphishing emails spread the Hakbit ransomware using malicious Microsoft Excel attachments and the GuLoader dropper.
A ransomware campaign, dubbed Hakbit, is targeting mid-level employees across Austria, Switzerland and Germany with malicious Excel attachments delivered via the popular email provider GMX.
The spear-phishing based campaign is low volume and so far targeted the pharmaceutical, legal, financial, business service, retail, and healthcare sectors. Low-volume style campaigns, sometimes called snowshoe spam attacks, use multiple domains to send relatively small blasts of bogus emails to circumvent reputation- or volume-based spam filtering.
