Compliance Node Overview
MITRE ATT&CK T1627.001 (Geofencing) is an ATT&CK for Mobile Defense Evasion sub-technique of T1627 (Execution Guardrails). Adversaries may use a device's geographical location to limit certain malicious behaviors. For example, malware operators may limit the distribution of a second stage payload to certain geographic regions. Geofencing is accomplished by persuading the user to grant the application permission to access location services. The application can then collect, process, and exfiltrate the device's location to perform location-based actions, such as ceasing malicious behavior or showing region-specific advertisements. Affected platforms: Android, iOS. MITRE-documented mitigations include M1011 User Guidance, M1006 Use Recent OS Version. Mobile controls map to NIST SP 800-124 Rev 2 and OWASP MASVS.
