ModifiedElephant is a persistent threat actor that has operated since at least 2012, primarily targeting human rights activists, human rights defenders, academics, journalists, and lawyers in India. This group is notable for its unique motivation: long-term surveillance which culminates in planting incriminating digital evidence on target systems, often preceding politically-charged arrests. Their operational model involves targeted attacks on specific individuals, and while their tools are generally mundane, they have proven effective in achieving their objectives. While ModifiedElephant does not operate under widely recognized aliases, its activity has shown overlaps with Operation Hangover and timing coincidences with SideWinder, suggesting operation within a crowded target space in India.
