Deep Panda began attacking the healthcare, aerospace, and energy sectors around 2012. Deep Panda is believed to be a Chinese state sponsored group. Symantec believes that Black Vine may be affiliated with a Beijing IT security organization called Topsec. Topsec is a research institute with sites across China. Topsec focuses on information security research, training, auditing, and security products. It also hosts a hacking competition (from which they hire hackers). It is possible that some members of Topsec are affiliated with Deep Panda.
