Description:
Energetic Bear is a cyberespionage group that has been active since at least 2011. They initially targeted defense and aviation companies but shifted to focus on the energy sector in early 2013. They have also targeted companies related to industrial control systems. The attackers managed to compromise a number of strategically important organizations for spying purposes and could cause energy supply disruption in the affected areas.
