Two waves of MH370-themed cyberattacks
9 March official-network intrusion · March–April public malware lures

Attack two: MyCERT alerts on 24 March and 18 April about MH370-themed backdoors and a fake investigation-transcript phish aimed more widely. Destination IP in China is not the same as a finding that Beijing ran the operation.
