Media: NSA can inflict a retaliatory cyber-attack on Russia

After hacking into the servers of the US Democratic Party, the National Security Agency (NSA) may attempt to retaliate a cyber attack on Russian government departments, reports Life.ru Post Channel ABC News.

According to the interlocutor of the channel, behind the attack, most likely, there are Russian hackers, and in order to accurately establish this fact, the option of response hacking is being considered.

“From the point of view of the external intelligence mission, one of the things we have to do is try to understand who did the hacking, who is responsible for the violations. We will use the authority of the NSA to conduct foreign intelligence, to understand who did it and get an attribution. This is hard work, but this is one of our responsibilities, ”said NSA staff member Robert Joyce.

Recall, recently, the FSB announced that it was infected with computer spyware about 20 by Russian departments of organizations.

According to the FSB, “computers of state authorities, scientific and military institutions, defense industry enterprises and other objects of the country’s critical infrastructure were subjected to infection.”

“After being introduced into the system, the malicious program loads the necessary modules and then can intercept network traffic, wiretap, take screenshots of the screen, independently enable webcams and microphones, mobile devices, record audio and video, as well as keystroke data,” explained in the power department.

It is noted that the FSB specialists, together with other agencies, "carried out a set of measures to identify all the" victims "of the malicious program in Russia, as well as localize the threats and minimize the consequences caused by its spread."

The key word here is "reciprocal" ... They say, everything has been proven, and Trump is Moscow's protege. And Clinton's "affairs" go into the shadows.

Like, everything is already proven

So no one dealt with the Malaysian Boeing. Immediately blamed.
Understand, do not understand, anyway, they will blame. And even if they figure it out and realize that they have blamed it indiscriminately, they will forget to apologize.

When I ask the Ukrainians living in Kiev, who shot down the Boeing in your opinion? They clearly answer me - Russia. I say, how is it so, and dispatchers' negotiations are objective control data, and black boxes and the nature of the damage on a downed liner?
They answer me - get out, svovoloch, Putin's propagandist, cattle, Muscovite, suitcase station Russia.

Something like this)))

I have no words -
"According to the data officially confirmed by the Ukrainian side, as of February 4, 2015, as a result of the armed conflict in the east of the country, the Ukrainian air forces and ground forces lost 11 aircraft from enemy fire (1 An-30, 1 An-26, 1 Il-76, 2 Su-24, 2 MiG-29, 4 Su-25), 7 helicopters (3 Mi-8 and 4 Mi-24) and two jet unmanned aerial vehicles Tu-143. "

The residents of Krains are talking - they themselves beat their MiG-29 An-30 An-26 Su-25 with their Bukami,
and Boeing CAM fell ....

Then I look ukroiny no longer use aviation against militias. Apparently decently fed )))
It finally arrived that there was no need to fly. Although it comes to them for a long time, like sheep.)

But nothing that all the downed combat and military transport planes and helicopters were significantly BELOW civilian air corridors?
Is it okay that Ukraine turned out to be the main "beneficiary"?
Nothing fired from the front line?
How does the movement of APU air defense systems in the Donbass correlate with all this?
Logic sometimes needs to be included, and not everything that is given.

[twviewer]

Then the people, I see, with their hats decided to throw an opponent, criminal naivety. Americans have been cyber espionage for a long time and at the system level, which includes using the largest IT corporations to their advantage. The collection and processing of seemingly insignificant information can improve its quality level. Having high-quality information is much easier to infiltrate in the victim’s information field, for example, for intelligence or obtaining critical commercial information (obtaining non-market advantages, industrial espionage). What corporations themselves are already interested in. Thus, the cooperation of special services with corporations becomes mutually beneficial. So that. And here you are with caps.

There is no need to put different winds there on "computers of state authorities, scientific and military institutions, enterprises of the military-industrial complex and other objects of the country's critical infrastructure." You need your own operating systems.

One of the activities of counterintelligence is to deceive the enemy. I think their viruses are allowed to penetrate into the "necessary" databases.

I don’t understand one thing ... why is it necessary to crack the server of the American Democrats in Russia? .. Russia has Hilary Clinton, she herself dumps everything to us with sms and doesn’t strain

[rotmistr60]

probablyare Russian hackers

Something too modest for an American. Clinton, without any evidence, has already said "luminevo" means "luminevo". For some reason, I recall one very active Ukrainian figure who was the initiator of the seizure of Orthodox churches and the main detractor of the Moscow Patriarchate. He ended up being struck by lightning. This I mean that sooner or later, but for all the evil that I have done will have to answer.

All this is pure pre-election populism. In this case, from the Democrats. Playing the card with Russia for "literate" and obedient voters. Hillary - Russia is a terrible enemy - (be afraid), but I can protect you from him. Trump - Russia is not so bad, ISIS is evil (be afraid), but I can protect you from it. And in practice, it does not matter whoever wins the vector of politics will remain unchanged - the United States is a superpower, and the rest should be its vassals and nothing else.

“Computers were infected government bodies, scientific and military institutions, enterprises of the military-industrial complex and other critical infrastructure facilities in the country. ”

I admit that the computer network of these organizations that have access to public networks, they could hit (although, probably without much damage to them). Internal networks are unlikely, since they do not have access to public networks (even the ports are closed to insert a flash drive or drive).

[Mountain shooter]

And I did not understand, Kaspersky is with us, or with them? Regarding the fact that their NSA will begin to "spoil our lives," and what, they were shy before? It seems to me that these are empty promises ...

Here is another component of modern war, cyber war. And the NSA is not sitting on those "wooden" Khokhlyad cyber warriors, but experts in their field and this must be understood. I think such a statement can be regarded as an official declaration of cyber war on us.

[Alex_Tug]

as an official announcement to us of cyber war.

This is not announced. And they are not announcing that she’s going either. Remember that the screws already come from the factory with embedded viruses.

[Banishing liberoids]

Let our hackers break into everything they reach out to in the USA !!! These rotten staff members were scorched!

[skeptic]

Well, then it’s time to really show what Russian hackers are (that would not be confused later).

[BOB044]

NSA may inflict retaliation cyberdar on Russia

No matter how painful they get in return. This NSA.

[Alex_Tug]

No matter how painful they get in return. This NSA.

NSA don't care. They do not cut funding.

[HAM]

It is high time to call things by their proper names: the Yankees blame Russia for all sins (existing and imaginary), and our services show unnecessary correctness - "..... a FOREIGN state is behind cyber attacks ..", TO HANG ON THE STAFF OF "ALL DOGS" - Let them justify themselves. Penguins perceive good manners in relationships as weakness. They are not ashamed of anything - and outright lies, and abductions, and even murders ..

[Altona]

A cyber attack on the servers of another state is generally equivalent to military operations. Apparently, the American corvettes in Middle-earth will have to repeat what the Russians can do with them.

[sergeyzzz]

Let them attack, our training will not hurt, we assume that these are exercises that are as close as possible to combat

[prior]

The "perpetrators" have been appointed.
There is little to do: to catch another "Bout" in Thailand, to sue and to jail.
The methods of our "partners" are "democratic" and unchanging.

They wanted to isolate - the tape was not enough. Now the Pokemon will launch.

[1536]

In my opinion, they are stuffing their own price. And if not, where did the billions of dollars to protect the information allocated by Congress to the NSA go? Are Americans really as dumb as they seem, or are all their bullshit servers?
Perhaps this provocation has a deeper foundation. In general, forbid the Russians to go abroad, and those who are already there, catch and throw in concentration camps! Exaggerate! Then the Americans, indeed, will not seem enough. But still, our special services still need to tighten control over the US Embassy in Moscow and the consulates of this country of terrorists in our large cities and individuals with an American passport.

[Wildfox]

Come on, you come up with foam, the Russian Federation simply winds up the response campaign of the NSA and the CIA as an enemy.
If it is necessary to really influence the Ministry of Economic Development, a brochure will be issued for HSE alumni. The point is to bathe with viruses if there are direct "levers" in the form of people.
In the Ministry of Defense, I think they can only hack public access servers and steal the "combed"
appeals in the press, in my opinion they always had their own internal network.
They maintain normal vigilance of citizens (and this is good) so that they first think and then do. Do not fight in hysteria, we observe and wait for a climax (choice in the Duma of the Russian Federation and the US President) and, of course, the denouement, warming / cooling of relations.

[Stinger]

Democracy is developing. Previously, at least the test tubes were shaken at the UN, but now one idiot just blurted out about the guilt of Russia, and now he is a "retaliatory" blow.

[gridasov]

Theoretically and practically, there are no such information resources located in information media that could not be opened for access. Therefore, a fool will always blame others for his own inability to protect himself. The smart one will seek methods and means of such protection. Therefore, the modern fundamental principles of placing basic sources of information, such as a code, cannot ensure secrecy and inaccessibility. In a linear recording of sequentially placed codes there is always a preceding code and a subsequent one, which constitutes a practical opportunity to detect hidden "records". However, when a mathematical code is written radially, each such code will represent a chain of algorithmically written codes, always in contact with several conjugate codes in a radius. Therefore, the "digital fortress" will always be impregnable for a whole range of factors that will ensure its secrecy with complete openness and work in the network.

[mikh-korsakov]

The American writes - I quote: most likely, Russian hackers are behind the attack, and in order to establish this fact precisely, the option of a return hack is being considered. I didn’t understand the logic, that is, the author seems to be saying, for example, if I’m not sure which of the neighbors in the communal apartment I gave me soup, I need to put in the soups those whom I suspect! Idiocy.

[Alex_Tug]

I do not understand the logic

To crow the logic is not needed. There would be a reason. Like a rooster: morning - Kukareku !!!

[Shuttle]

Could attack - would attack long ago.

These woodpeckers still do not understand that they can carry out an attack on those organs that are connected to their tyrnets. Truly dangerous or of interest to them systems, we not only specifically check and specifically investigate (yes, it’s called Special Inspection and Special Investigation), but we don’t connect to the Internet at all. For nefig!

[Bochik]

"From the point of view of the foreign intelligence mission, one of the things we have to do is try to understand who did the break-in, who is responsible for the violations."

They will blame Russia again, and instead of evidence they will say that they exist, but are terribly classified.
