Its documented targeting includes Singapore's healthcare sector; its country of origin is not established. Whitefly uses publicly available tools alongside techniques for credential theft, privilege escalation, and payload concealment. It has obtained and used Mimikatz to extract credentials from compromised Windows systems.
