Rising Sun is the brainchild of an eccentric but philanthropic billionaire. Their initial goal was focused purely on corporate espionage in order to destroy companies with unethical or immoral practices (in the eyes of their founder), but has since expanded to encompass a vast array of cyberwarfare operations done in the name of the greater good. Collateral damage from their operations is either negligible or massive.

Their funding comes exclusively from their corporate backer and founder, and any profits from their operations are funneled back into his back account. The size of the organization is tightly controlled, kept to 50 active operatives at all times.

Rising Sun recruits aggressively within universities worldwide, aiming to recruit new members young and have the organization mold them as they grow. Full-fledged members are invariably well-off (or at least present themselves as such), with a corporate mindset (and dress sense). Predictably, Rising Sun is structured much like a small corporation, with their founder at the head of the pyramid.

Because members are recruited at a young age and allowed to learn and mature within the organization, they are fiercely loyal to one another. Any attempt to discern information about the group from a Social Engineering perspective is wholly useless. The largest security vulnerability of the group is likely their visibility. Their operations are not difficult to distinguish from those of other groups, bearing obvious ‘telegraphed’ similarities to other operations attributed to them or openly claimed by them. Because they aren’t difficult to spot, they are easy to target.
