You say eating burgers in bed like its a bad thing.Thankfully @R-T-B pulled the truth out of this. I was skeptical but few of use knew enough background to the initial post.
As for helping, I support R-T-B and what he's doing. This is what the forum is for. Real problems sometimes hit walls but @MadBrit persevered and that got him the help he wanted.
If we weren't Samaritans occasionally, we may as well just wall our borders, turn on our allies and eat burgers in bed. Altruism makes us better, paranoia might keep you alive, but it also keeps you alone.
Pay it back.

@TheMailMan78 ; I understand your hesitancy and no offence intended. Lots of trolls out there. It has just been 8 weeks of hell and I am stoked that R-T-B was willing to listen when no one else was. Kinda overwhelmed by all of this actually. Not every day you get something like this show up - and I am asking "Why me?". Perhaps I pissed off the wrong person (only one person I know could do the job to this level and they are very vindictive). Perhaps this was a dry run on a non-critical target(s) to test the malware by a state actor? Who knows...but with $3K of infected hardware and 8+ weeks of lost work (plus 5 months of lost project work), I want to nail this malware and stop it before it does some real damage. That's where you guy's come in.
It's super odd, beucase people that usually would be a vector for this would simply just buy new hardware and be done with it. I mean, that's how you really fix stuff like this. There is no real defense from an active attack once your system is known, and the minor costs you have raised are just that.. minor. Change your mac id, and you're golden. They don't toss out phones in movies when being tracked for no reason.@TheMailMan78 ; I understand your hesitancy and no offence intended. Lots of trolls out there.

Comments like this merely affirm my thinking. You're alluding to a private conversation in public. Why, exactly? Doesn't seem to be any other reason other than a lack of testosterone if you're being honest.The amount of dead sweet ssd you went through alone makes me want to cry...

If @W1zzard is ok I can start posting technical evidence here of the malware here in the form of infected UEFI DXEs, PEIs and such. I just don't know if it's a good idea seeing as it's relatively easy to inject bios modules and many of them can/could be abused, possibly even on other boards.
If anyone wants to help me on something that could really prove something, I need a stock, known uninfected Intel Management Firmware region file version 11.8.50.3399 to compare to his.
There appears to be one from lenovo but it is completely locked down by a device specific exe and unextractable.

EDIT: Found one from a gigabyte board, the z370 aorus gaming 7, bios f4. Extracted the stock region version 11.8.50.3399 and working on a comparison now.

He needs to do security hardening then, purge all other systems off the network, replace his modem and router, request a new ip address, update firmware of modem and router, add a hardware firewall if possible.
Heres some info that might help.

I heard the ime is built into the cpu/pch. If it was a separate chip on the board too bad there is no way of tricking the cpu/pch thinking it is there but is not...
