Provide current and historical ownership information on domains / IPs. Identify all connections between domains, registrants, registrars, and DNS servers.
Proofpoint uncovered1 the global expansion of TA4922, a suspected Chinese-speaking cybercrime group that rapidly rotates malware—including Atlas RAT, RomulusLoader, SilentRunLoader, and ValleyRAT (Winos4.0)—and used localized HR-, tax-, and invoice-themed lures to deliver malware, credential phishing, and fraud schemes across Asia, Europe, and Africa.
The original analysis publicized seven network IoCs. Aided by the WhoisXML API MCP Server2, we investigated eight IoCs—one subdomain, two domains, and five IP addresses—after extracting the apex domain from the subdomain IoC.
