Episode 59
In the Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) region, a burgeoning set of threat actors is emerging with a different language set, distinct tools, and an ecosystem where they interact with adversaries across the threat landscape.
The CrowdStrike 2025 APJ eCrime Landscape Report explores the trends and issues facing organizations operating in this part of the world. For example, criminal groups in APJ are focused on opportunistic big game hunting and primarily target organizations in manufacturing, technology, industrials and engineering, financial services, and professional services. The sale of phishing kits is popular, with some going for up to $1 million. These threat actors prefer phishing, spam campaigns, and remote access toolkits to enable their operations. And they often find them on thriving Chinese-language marketplaces, which enable the sale of illicit services.
While Eastern Europe is typically known as a hotbed of eCrime activity, the APJ region is one to watch. Tune in to hear Adam and Cristian discuss the key adversaries operating in the region, the threats that stand out to them, and how defenders can stay safe.
