Move over, Netflix — the trending series of 2025 is DeskRAT: Cyber Thrills Edition! In a stunning plot twist, Transparent Tribe, also known as APT36, has ditched their old-school hacking methods for the cutting-edge allure of Golang-based malware. Experts are convinced that if HBO’s Westworld had a techie sibling, DeskRAT would definitely be it. The notorious Pakistani threat actors are now targeting Indian government entities, proving once again that no phishing expedition is complete without some rat-infested traps.

Golang: It’s not just for hipster developers anymore! Once the exclusive domain of tech startups and cryptocurrency evangelists, Golang is now the darling scripting language of cyber miscreants worldwide. By leveraging this trendy language, APT36 shows they’re not only fashion-forward in their coding but also planning to make malware development great again—one spear-phishing email at a time.

Who needs James Bond villains when you’ve got state-sponsored hacking groups? Dating back to 2013, Transparent Tribe has been the cyber equivalent of that relentless gym buddy who just won’t quit. Their persistent attacks on Indian governmental entities prove they’re both consistent and creatively reinventing the wheels of espionage. DeskRAT might sound like a startup offering ergonomic rats for office desks, but it packs a mean virtual punch—an unwanted digital gift that just keeps on giving!
