Mr.Tekide Baseball Card
Much has been written about Mr.Tekide and his crypters used by APT34 (OilRig) and others. Other
organizations have documented information about Mr.Tekide's tools in 'celebrated' cyber attacks against Fortune 500 institutions, governments, educational organizations, and critical infrastructure entities.
Identification
However, identifying Mr.Tekide, his background, locations, and his own words has never been openly accomplished. Many believe that following an individual does not pay dividends. Treadstone 71 demonstrates the alignment of Mr.Tekide to the Iranian government through years of support using crypters such as the iloveyoucrypter, qazacrypter, and njRAT.
