IBM Releases Report on Cyber Actors Targeting the COVID-19 Vaccine Supply Chain



Original release date: December 3, 2020

IBM X-Force has released a report on malicious cyber actors targeting the COVID-19 cold chain—an integral part of delivering and storing a vaccine at safe temperatures. Impersonating a biomedical company, cyber actors are sending phishing and spearphishing emails to executives and global organizations involved in vaccine storage and transport to harvest account credentials. The emails have been posed as requests for quotations for participation in a vaccine program.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) encourages Operation Warp Speed (OWS) organizations and organizations involved in vaccine storage and transport to review the IBM X-Force report Attackers Are Targeting the COVID-19 Vaccine Cold Chain for more information, including indicators of compromise. For tips on avoiding social engineering and phishing attacks, see CISA Insights: Enhance Email & Web Security.
