Coding similarities suggest a possible link with multiple campaigns over several years.
What isn't clear is whether all these campaigns have been waged by the same group, or whether multiple groups have access to the same Mikroceen malware family.
"But we cannot with certainty attribute all of these campaigns to the same group. It is possible that there are multiple APT groups sharing resources, but I don't want to speculate."
While there is no certainty, the general feeling is that these multiple campaigns have been operated by a single group.
Going forward, as more is learned and more campaigns are discovered, this will need to be remedied; There are two obvious candidates for this unnamed APT group: Vicious Panda, or the Mikroceen Gang.
