Facebook said it has linked an advanced hacking group widely believed to be sponsored by the government of Vietnam to what's purported to be a legitimate IT company in that country.

The so-called advanced persistent threat group goes under the monikers APT32 and OceanLotus. It has been operating since at least 2014 and targets private sector companies in a range of industries along with foreign governments, dissidents, and journalists in South Asia and elsewhere. It uses a variety of tactics, including phishing, to infect targets with fully featured desktop and mobile malware that’s developed from scratch. To win targets’ confidence, the group goes to great lengths to create websites and online personas that masquerade as legitimate people and organizations.
