This is the best summary I could come up with:

A cache of stolen documents posted to GitHub appears to reveal how a Chinese infosec vendor named I-Soon offers rent-a-hacker services for Beijing.

Analysis of the docs by infosec vendor SentinelOne characterizes I-Soon as “a company who competes for low-value hacking contracts from many government agencies.”

SentinelOne and Malwarebytes found I-Soon claims to have developed tools capable of compromising devices running Linux, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.

Other material appears to see I-Soon bid for work in Xinjiang – a province in which Beijing persecutes the Muslim Uyghur population – by claiming to have run anti-terrorist ops in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Some of the leaked docs describe hardware hacking devices I-Soon employs – including a poisoned power bank that uploads data into victims’ machines.

Documents detailing how I-Soon tries to win work from Chinese government agencies do therefore offer insight into how Beijing outsources its infosec offensives.
