Three years ago I learned of a group of hackers hitting Ukraine with relentless, disruptive cyberattacks—with effects that would soon spread globally. Today, my book that tells the story of that first true cyberwar is out: SANDWORM. I hope you'll read it.https://www.amazon.com/Sandworm-Cyberwar-Kremlins-Dangerous-Hackers/dp/0385544405 …

I know everyone else read it a year ago, but I'm approaching the end of "Say Nothing" by
@praddenkeefe and haven't felt this reluctant to finish a book in a long time. Any recommendations of another nonfiction book that is this perfectly reported/written and so compelling?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
After 18 months, Intel is still trying to fix a security flaw in its chips known as MDS or "ZombieLoad"—now with a THIRD patch to cover yet another variant of the attack. Researchers point out they told Intel about the second & third variants a year ago.

Sec of State Pompeo asked
@nprkelly "Do you think Americans care about Ukraine?" https://www.npr.org/transcripts/799244678 … Sec of State Tillerson asked in 2017 "Why should American taxpayers be interested in Ukraine?" The Trump White House has now made pretty clear: It doesn't care about Ukraine.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
At the first
#Pwn2Own hacking contest to focus on industrial control systems, hackers demonstrated at least one zero-day in all eight software targets. Which, considering the power grids, refineries and factories this code controls, is a little disturbing.https://www.wired.com/story/pwn2own-industrial-hacking-contest/ …Thanks.

The privacy paranoid among us have long worried that all of our online photos would be scraped to create a universal face recognition app. My friends, it happened and it’s here:https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/18/technology/clearview-privacy-facial-recognition.html …

I know big architectural changes like that take a while in the automotive space, but I was hoping to see some change after our research was presented 5 years ago. Architecture looks identical between 2014 and 2020 model.

You may recall me and
@nudehaberdasher hacked a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. We chose that car because it had no gateway module between the telematics module and the modules with physical controls. I just looked at the 2020 model, there is still no gateway module.Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -

Bulgarian investigative site Bivol digs in here on the hosting providers used by Sandworm/GRU in its hacking operations that include targeting the 2018 Olympics, the 2017 French election, the Ukrainian power grid, and NotPetya:https://twitter.com/BivolBg/status/1217469795190308866?s=20 …

To be clear, I'm not arguing that this *wasn't* GRU. They're by far the most likely suspect. But for a story this politically fraught, the certainty of attribution really, really matters.

"Moderate confidence" is not the kind of certainty the Times story conveys. But to be fair we don't know what else
@Area1Security, who seems to be the Times' main source on this, might have.

ThreatConnect's
@kyleehmke has a thread here on his own analysis of the domains used in this phishing campaign.

It would be good to see some more evidence of the GRU’s fingerprints on this. But given the political value of Burisma as a hack-and-leak target and Russia’s national pastime of penetrating Ukrainian networks, nothing in the world would make more sense.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/13/us/politics/russian-hackers-burisma-ukraine.html …

Facebook gave a talk at
#RealWorldCrypto, and the big takeaway is its grand mission to end-to-end encrypt all messaging by default (particularly for Facebook Messenger's billion-plus users) faces huge technical challenges and is still multiple years away.https://www.wired.com/story/facebook-messenger-end-to-end-encryption-default/ …Thanks.

For those anticipating Iranian cyberattacks, another nugget from Dragos: Iranian hackers APT33 have been probing US electric utilities and oil/gas firms with "password spraying" attacks for the last year, and a related group has been trying VPN exploits.https://www.wired.com/story/iran-apt33-us-electric-grid/ …

We do not have to accept that the US must respond. We have agency- we must insist that our country de-escalate.

Some coalescing thoughts on Iran's cyber capability. The first is that while cyberattack (disruption/destruction) is on the table, the most consequential capability may be cyber espionage. There will be cyber espionage against gov/mil targets as well as personnel of interest. 1/x
