Wapack Labs analysts recently discovered a
typosquatted domain tass-cas.org likely targeting The Court of Arbitration for
Sport (CAS, tas-cas.org) – international organization with headquarters in
Switzerland.
Wapack Labs believes that this may be part of a larger campaign caused by CAS decisions
regarding doping-related bans of Russian athletes regarding Olympic and
Paralympic Summer Games 2016.
The larger campaign includes hacking attacks on
the CAS website, and cyber attacks against partner organizations, for example
against the World Ani-Doping Agency (WADA) - previously reported in the Red Sky Alliance portal.
