German media: Hackers stole documents about contacts with Berlin and Ukraine

75
German magazine Der spigel publishes material that refers to the intervention of hackers. The article claims that some cybercriminals have stolen documents on a number of foreign policy directions of Germany from the servers of the German government. In particular, the alleged abduction of documents in preparation for the procedure for the withdrawal of Britain from the EU (the so-called Brexit).

It is also stated that hackers gained access to official Berlin talks with the authorities of the Republic of Belarus and Ukraine.
It is added that such governmental ministries and departments as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defense of Germany suffered the greatest damage.



German media: Hackers stole documents about contacts with Berlin and Ukraine


The publication noted that the attack was recorded in December last year. To the servers, apparently, the malicious code was previously launched, which ultimately opened up to hackers access to the information stored there. For a relatively long time, the malicious code “slept” and then was activated by the “hosts”.

In total, 6 secret documents were stolen, among them documents on contacts of the Government of Angela Merkel with the Ukrainian authorities. Der Spiegel writes that at the last stage, the activity of hackers "has already been monitored by German law enforcement agencies."

              If the power is PUBLIC, OFFICIAL - even if they do everything PUBLIC and OFFICIAL. And then FIG you know what the taxes went. Maybe, instead of medicines for the poor, road repairs and subsidies for the development of the economy go to chocolate lard, and not to taxpayers.
              I understand that this is not the case now, and claims are being rolled out for violation of secrets.

          ... In total, 6 secret documents were stolen, among which documents on the contacts of the government of Angela Merkel with the Ukrainian authorities. Spiegel writes that at the last stage, the activities of the hackers “already took place under the supervision of German law enforcement agencies” ...

          It was either stolen or not. Either 6 documents (how was it counted?), Or, under the control of the special services, downloaded something else (controlled that they got slammed, or slipped a controlled misinformation?).
          Shnyaga diluted with shnyaga, which is not confirmed. And if questions arise - the theft of information was controlled by special services, but they do not answer questions.

      Dear Partisan, in the Westdeutsche Allgemene Zeitung newspaper the day before yesterday. Nothing specific is written there. Just that the hackers of the "famous Russian group" Snike,
      those. "Snakes". They say that they downloaded only one secret document of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on East European relations. Von der Leyen’s ears did not suffer, as they hacked the Bundestag contractor’s computer, which was connected to the Bundestag’s internal network. A lot of la-la, little specificity. Yelling to heaven about the lack of specialists in IT security and, of course, the low funding for the fight against hackers.
      It would be necessary to google these "snakes".

                        If before the capital's cheers-patriots were trumpeting that the Kerch bridge would soon collapse, today Kiev has expressed a desire to take it from the Russian Federation, which sounds, at least, ridiculous.

                        So, Ukraine will turn to the European Bailiff Service for seizing the Krymsky Bridge as an interim measure to pay Gazprom a debt of $ 2.56 billion.

                        The appeal has already been sent to CEP units in the UK, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and France. Until the end of March, similar requests will be sent to at least 22 European countries, as well as China, Canada, the United States and Morocco.

                        The preliminary cost of the bridge is set, taking into account the degree of its readiness, at $ 1.73 billion, which according to Kiev is about 70% of the payments due to it.

                        Note that cunning Ukrainian officials are looking for as many ways as possible to strip money not only from their people, but also from other countries. Having become angry with the Russian Gazprom for terminating the contract, Kiev announced its intention to collect about three billion hryvnias from the Russian Federation for flights of Russian airlines to Simferopol airport.

      If we are talking about electronic information, then:
      1. how was it stolen? most likely just copied.
      2. suppose that after copying it was erased (i.e., it was stolen). But this is not material value in a single copy, and if these were signed documents, then these are just scans, which means they are preserved in paper form. Or there are electronic copies, if the signature is electronic - no one has canceled the reservation of important information.

    If we write on this topic, then we should fully publish the article of Spiegel magazine dated March 10, 2018. It clearly states that, thanks to the Kaspersky Lab, an information leak was detected. In particular, documents relating to Brexit. The remaining documents, already under the supervision of German intelligence services, were merged into a certain Russian-speaking hacker group regarding contacts of the German Foreign Ministry with Belarusian and Ukrainian representatives. It is surprisingly different how documents are stored and processed secretly under the stamp. Typically, such documents are not stored or processed on digital media. And trite printed on "typewriters." In fact, the world is literally immersed in the information industry to create a fake informational reality that has nothing to do with objective reality. The average publishing and information company can easily compete in revenue with large and powerful manufacturing corporations.

    German magazine Der Spigel publishes material that talks about hacker interference. The article claims that some cybercriminals stole documents from a German government server in a number of areas of Germany’s foreign policy. In particular, it was announced the theft of documents in preparation for the procedure for Britain to exit the EU (the so-called Brexit).
    It is also stated that hackers gained access to official Berlin talks with the authorities of the Republic of Belarus and Ukraine.
    It is added that such governmental ministries and departments as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defense of Germany suffered the greatest damage.


    Glory to the Russian hackers! fellow boys, I'm proud of you! drinks
    Digging under Merkel, nothing special. The Macington macaques began preparations for the government crisis in Germany with the aim of provoking once again the economic crisis in Europe. My vision is this.
