Back to interesting information. Hackers apparently broke into the NSA and stole viruses/malware developed and used (against our allies and other foreign governments) by the NSA. See the last paragraph. https://www.cyberscoop.com/shadow-brokers-nsa-microsoft-windows-exploits-2017/ Shadow Brokers’ latest leak could have come from beyond NSA staging servers Cybersecurity experts tell CyberScoop the viewable evidence suggests the existence of advanced hacking tools, which could be used to exfiltrate data, destroy digital forensic evidence, attribute old cyberattacks and compromise numerous systems running older versions of Windows. The Shadow Brokers are supposedly selling the exploits for roughly $850,000 worth of bitcoin in total. “These filenames and directories look familiar to me … Based on their [Shadow Brokers] past behavior, other things they’ve posted, I have no reason to be believe they don’t have them,” a former U.S. intelligence official told CyberScoop on the condition of anonymity. Microsoft security teams are aware of the leaked exploits and have begun investigating the incident. “[But] there’s not much for Microsoft to do until the files themselves are made public,” said Williams, a former vulnerability analyst with the Defense Department. “Microsoft has telemetry where they get crash reports that include data about what caused a crash. Given that the Shadow Brokers’ are indicating they have zero days for IIS [Internet Information Services for Windows Servers], RDP [Microsoft Remote Desktop] and SMB [Microsoft Server Message Block], teams are likely taking a hard look at crash reports for those services,” Williams said. Among the trove of published file names and directories is reference to “DANDERSPRITZ,” a software tool used by attackers to obfuscate IP and MAC addresses. Documents previously revealed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden show that DANDERSPRITZ was used by operators at the spy agency.
Denny's going to be very very busy playing defense for the foreseeable future. Right up through the impeachment. barfo
I don't know, I wouldn't be inclined to believe it myself, but you seem so butt hurt about it I'm thinking it must have some resonance. barfo
Hahahaha Buzzfeed is butt hurt, not me. So are the so-called news organizations that have thrown journalistic integrity out the window, just to prove how butt hurt they are.
No, no, I think you doth protest too much. You may want to get a prescription for Prozac or Xanax, otherwise the failure of Trump might just kill you. Maybe in suppository form, to more quickly alleviate your butt hurt. barfo
Someone write the names of those drugs in crayon for you? If Trump fails, he fails. The best part of his presidency is that YOUR candidate lost to HIM, of all people. Get it? In the meantime, why not hope he cuts deal after deal and rebuilds the middle class? Maybe he'll fix all the shit that Obama broke and left to him.
holy shit, he is totally getting rick rolled by cnn. he admits that putin helped him get elected. FAKE NEWS.
No, no, he's just trolling everyone by saying it was Russians. He's just having fun. He'll tell us the actual truth later. Much, much later. barfo
He said we've been hacked by all sorts of people, including Russia. He didn't say the Russians were involved in the hacks or releases through WikiLeaks. I think he's trying to be nice to the Intel community.
you really don't like crayons....seems maybe you had a traumatic experience with them in your formative years
Right. He should just take the wrong positions and never change his mind, no matter the evidence. /sarcasm Kinda like trying to make ObamaCare work, believing it's a good thing.
which Trump is now backpedaling on ...he's now saying he'll keep part of it....but in my view, he's already taken several wrong positions...a couple things I agree on but the vast majority looks like a massive shit storm....let's hope not. You can worship his bluster and celebrate Denny....I'm not joining in until I have good reason to and so far.....not looking good
This is where you put on the blinders.....but I sense it's your hate for Obama and Clinton...not your knowledge of Trump's abilities.
This is what I've been saying all along....proof will not be available to the media or public no matter which side it favors...especially just before an inauguration. It's a flag...and what I think is something to concern us but they will not open that can of worms anytime soon.
Not much of an admission since they said that when they posted it. And they aren't reporting anything, they just published the documents which apparently most everyone in government and the media already had. barfo
