Group-IB, a leading creator of cybersecurity technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime, today highlighted the ongoing cooperation between Group-IB and the State Institution Ukuk, under the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Kyrgyz Republic.
This partnership, formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding signed earlier, continues to facilitate joint work aimed at strengthening the country’s cyber resilience and enhancing national protection against advanced cyber threats and emerging fraud schemes. As part of Group-IB’s broader program of cooperation with national cyber defense bodies across Central Asia, this initiative represents another important step toward enhancing cybersecurity at a national level and protecting critical government infrastructure.
Under the previously signed MoU, both parties established a formal framework for information exchange, joint analytical activities, expert consultations, and collaboration on emerging cyber threats. Both parties are now cooperating on identifying key cybersecurity challenges facing government institutions in Kyrgyzstan and exploring how Group-IB’s technologies including Threat Intelligence, Digital Forensics, Incident Response, and Fraud Protection can support the country’s long-term digital security objectives.
As part of this continued cooperation, Group-IB and Ukuk recently conducted a joint investigation into the APT group Bloody Wolf, which targeted government institutions through spear-phishing campaigns. The findings are published here.
“Our recent joint analysis with Ukuk on the Bloody Wolf campaign shows how localized lures, custom loaders, and remote-access tools are being used to target institutions across Central Asia. This kind of investigation is only possible when global expertise and local intelligence come together. By deepening our cooperation, we strengthen Kyrgyzstan’s ability to expose threat actors and protect its national digital infrastructure.”
