Abstract
This paper aims to discuss the recent activities of Financially motivated Threat actors and gather IOCs and Threat Intelligence based on the same. Common TTPs are mapped for 18 FIN threat actor groups along with known mitigations as per MITRE Attack Framework. In particular, FIN 7 is discussed in detail, including the lifecycle of Qakbot Malware and malwares are analyzed to gather IOCs using Static Analysis. Intrusion Detection Systems (Snort and YARA) are drafted for Qakbot. A comprehensive analysis on Diamond Model, Kill Chain and Pyramid of Pain is performed for Qakbot Malware and mitigations are mapped to MITRE ATTACK framework. Threat intelligence is gathered on the 1000 latest samples of Qakbot to deep dive into most commonly used delivery methods, malware file types and a timeline analysis is conducted. Advanced tools like OpenCTI and Cuckoo Sandbox are utilized to give an overall analysis on Financially motivated threat actors
