In order to breach into its victims' networks, this intrusion set employs not only advanced social engineering techniques that encompass SIM swap attacks against the telecommunication sector and spearphishing, but also the acquisition of active passwords & session tokens on specialized dark web markets and forums.

In this context, the City of London Police announced the 24 th of March 2022 that seven teenagers between the ages of 16 and 21 were arrested. We don't know if the supposedly « mastermind » of the LAPSUS$ intrusion set is amongst the seven.
