Infoblox Threat Intel had the opportunity to collaborate with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (#UNODC) for their latest report on South East Asian Crime. The report is titled "Inflection Point". It is a great in-depth analysis of the triads and how they fuel the current scam epidemic.
Organized crime is booming - as you can see with the picture below which shows the growth in the physical footprint of the compounds they operate.
Our part of the collaboration (pages 37-42 of the 90+ page report) were around a single actor that we can track in #dns -- naturally!
We analysed a number of illegal Chinese-operated gambling websites and soon found out they were operated by the same 'gambling provider' we named Vault Viper. Vault viper develops its very own "secure gambling browser". Of course it's #malware.
Through DNS, we discovered the companies behind Vault Viper were in fact controlled by Suncity - a criminal junket whose founder has been convicted of laundering billions of dollars.

Illegal gambling is not harmless fun. It fuels some of the largest criminal networks in the world.
The entire report is worth reading to get the latest view from experts on the world of organized crime in Asia that is running #scam, #pigbutchering, #humantrafficking, #cybercrime, #malware, #illegalgambling, illegal porn and who knows what else. The image below shows just how much it has grown in a few years from physical footprints.
We'll be releasing a detailed report on Vault Viper in the coming months.
