Researchers have discovered a new backdoor, dubbed "Deadglyph," believed to be created by the Stealth Falcon group. The malware is highly sophisticated and uses homoglyph techniques for deception. It dynamically receives commands from the command-and-control server as modules, and has anti-detection capabilities. It collects information about the victim's computer and can self-remove if it fails to connect to the server. The backdoor is associated with the group known as Project Raven or Stealth Falcon, which targets activists and journalists in the Middle East.
