BRONZE DUDLEY

Also known asbronze_dudley

BRONZE DUDLEY is an espionage-focused threat group assessed with moderate confidence to operate on behalf of China. It has used weaponized RTF documents as an initial infection vector to deploy the PoisonIvy remote access trojan. Observed targeting includes entities in Mongolia; third-party reporting indicates the group may also target other government and commercial organizations in East Asia and potentially more broadly. Known aliases include Temp.Hex, Vicious Panda, and TA428. CTU researchers note potential overlaps with BRONZE PRESIDENT and BRONZE HUNTLEY, but currently track all three as distinct activity clusters.
