The Elderwood Gang: One Relentless Group Behind Current Targeted Attacks

"Unveiled by Symantec in April 2012, the Elderwood project was a good example of an advanced threat group that was capable of launching highly focused, yet large and persistent campaigns. In April 2012, we observed nearly 2,000 spear- phishing emails being sent by the Elderwood attackers within the same campaign to a large number of recipients who were employees of two major defense industries." - Symantec ISTR Report, 2014
