Summary

Hide ▲

BO Team ran an early September 2025 phishing campaign that targeted Russian companies and used password-protected RAR archives to deliver backdoor payloads. The operation mattered because it delivered BrockenDoor and ZeronetKit, expanding the group’s ability to gain access to victims’ systems. The activity is consistent with a targeted, multi-stage intrusion delivery chain rather than a one-off lure.
