US: The Equation Group [0]
Israel: Unit 8200 [1]
According to this[2] Wikipedia article on APTs.
I'd be curious to know what kind of non-state APT groups in "The West" are at least tacitly approved, or 'sub-contracted'. The equivalent of say crime groups in Russia.

- halJordan 3y agoThose are not really apt designations except the equation group. The sanctioned ngo cyber actors are groups like finfisher, nso, the greek one that was just sanctioned, the remnants of Hacking Team. Alongside DIB companies like Raytheon, LockMart, etc. it's all rather aboveboard.
