ThreatConnect analyzes the Anthem breach and related activity attributed to Chinese APT groups, detailing signed Derusbi/Sakula and other implants, overlapping malware infrastructure (we11point, prennera, topsec2014), and domain/IP indicators. It links the operation to Southeast University and Beijing Topsec, discusses the role of the MSS and state sponsorship in supporting research ties, and emphasizes the need for collaborative defense and proactive threat intelligence sharing to mitigate such large-scale, sophisticated campaigns.
