A threat group is an organized set of individuals or hackers who work together to carry out cyberattacks. These groups often have specific goals, such as stealing data, disrupting services, or conducting espionage. Security researchers commonly assign code names to threat groups to track their activities and identify patterns in their attack methods. Threat groups can be linked to criminal organizations, nation-states, or hacktivist causes, and they typically use sophisticated techniques to breach systems and evade detection.
