Monitoring these servers, we also discovered that 96% of the connections to these servers are coming from Japan – further proof that the most of the banking trojan infections are coming from that one specific country.

In addition to this, we also managed to find out the following about this campaign:
  • Only financial and banking organizations native to Japan are targeted in this attack
  • Popular webmail services (Gmail, Yahoo! Japan mail, Hotmail) were also targeted
