Moshen Dragon hacking group uses a sceptical evolving approach to counter and target attacks to telecommunication firms.

Anti-virus product from kaspersky, bitdefender, symantec requires high privileges, agreement and policy which must be accepted before installation, this enables hackers to install malicious load that can breach sensitive information from data systems.

Hackers can infiltrate malicious DLL to run codes on machine without any error alert message to the users because these AV product are inline with windows operating system.

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) allows running of remote code and lateral movement from a python kit, impacted deployed by the mighty hacker called Moshen Dragon.
