Precision cyber-attacks targeting law firms

A recent report released by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation warns that highly targeted attacks are being leveled specifically at law firms, lawyers, and their associates.

Specific indicators of compromise include attempts to access files located at the ueopen.com domain.
