The Cyber Threat Intelligence Unit at BGD e-GOV CIRT has identified a surge in cyber-attacks targeting organizations through the compromise of third-party service providers. Recently, multiple organizations in Bangladesh have encountered data breaches. Some individuals employed by third-party service providers, tasked with offering technical support to various client organizations, have been targeted by information-stealing malware. Investigations revealed that the information-stealing malware covertly extracted sensitive data, including system information, browser cookies, and user account credentials, used to access client organizations.
