IBM watches Iranian hacker training video
 

Five hours of footage

Security experts at IBM’s X-Force security team have obtained roughly five hours of video footage that appears to have been recorded directly from the screens of hackers working for a group IBM calls ITG18, and which other security firms refer to as APT35 or Charming Kitten.

For those who came in late, the group is one of the most active state-sponsored espionage teams linked to the Iranian government.

The leaked videos were found among 40 gigabytes of data that the hackers had stolen from victim accounts, including US and Greek military personnel. Other clues in the data suggest that the hackers targeted US State Department staff and an unnamed Iranian American philanthropist.

The IBM researchers say they found the videos exposed due to a misconfiguration of security settings on a virtual private cloud server they'd observed in previous APT35 activity.
