\n Qurium has released a report on an attempted phishing attack on human rights and political activists in Azerbaijan.
\n <\/i>
\n <\/b>\n<\/p>\n

\n On July 7th, several prominent human rights and political activists in Azerbaijan received a targeted phishing mail impersonating
\n
\n Human Rights Watch
\n <\/i>
\n .\n<\/p>\n

\n According to Qurium\u2019s analysis, the mail included a link to a malware, with the capability of webcam and Desktop recording, execution of Windows commands and extraction and uploading of selected files from the victim\u2019s computer. Qurium\u2019s report presents an analysis of the malware and explains how it was built, its capabilities, and where it was hosted.\n<\/p>\n

\n This targeted phishing attack is not an isolated case, but rather a long term strategy from the Azerbaijani authorities to compromise human rights activists and journalists, states Qurium.\n<\/p>\n
