Today, it is known that more than 155 institutions, private companies and universities are working on vaccine development related to the Covid-19 outbreak and are slowly starting to be tested on humans. According to the statements made, it is stated that hackers are attempting to steal these works.

It is stated that the aim of the attackers is not to sabotage other countries, but to gather intelligence about the studies and steal research in order to develop their own vaccines faster. In particular, attackers take advantage of fraudulent email and vulnerability exploits. They then infiltrate the organization's network using the compromised passwords and perform their actions.
