Tibet Trojan attacks connected to Chinese programmer

Security firm AlienVault thinks it has identified a key Chinese programmer with connections to the Chinese Government who could be behind a long-running malware assault on pro-Tibet campaigners, including with the recent PlugX RAT Trojan.

It’s extremely rare that security companies are able to put a name and a face to specific pieces of malware so the connection it stumbled upon when researching PlugX could attract some attention.
