A suspected Chinese state-sponsored hacking group, RedJuliett, has intensified its targeting of Taiwanese organisations, including government, education, technology, and diplomacy sectors, ahead of Taiwan's presidential elections in January. The cyberattacks were observed between November 2023 and April 2024. RedJuliett accessed servers via vulnerabilities in SoftEther enterprise VPN software. Recorded Future suggests that Chinese intelligence services in Fuzhou are likely behind the attacks to gather intelligence on Taiwan.
