Twenty-five year ago that would fool people. Now things are complex enough that you can't help but leave clues even as you're trying to plant them.
The DPR was caught in part from a post on Stack Overflow where he was asking a question unique to his platform. Imagine how hard it would be to write the Flame malware. Now imagine the NSA and CIA hunting for traces afterword. Building that malware required deep information on many system that would likely require badges or intensive social engineering to access, both of which leave traces. Do you really think you could hide?
I'm an expert (of sorts) and I'm not sure that I could buy drugs on the dark web 100% securely if those resources were hunting me.
- xiphias2 6y agoYou can try to blame somebody else (or even multiple people) by leaving deliberate traces. Cyberwarfare is the most assymetric warfare that we have.
- octoberfranklin 6y agoNo, virological warfare gets that award. And I don't mean computer viruses.
- octoberfranklin 6y agoYeah I'd be safe. If they were looking for me they would find me, but as soon as somebody shouts "Teh Russianz Did It!" everybody stops looking!
