Amnesty International Canada target of sophisticated cyberattack linked to China
- barbazoo 4y ago> Forensic experts with leading international cyber-security firm Secureworks later established that “a threat group sponsored or tasked by the Chinese state” was likely behind the attack. The forensic audit’s conclusion is based “on the nature of the targeted information as well as the observed tools and behaviors, which are consistent with those associated with Chinese cyberespionage threat groups.” Is this enough to attribute such an attack?
- tinglymintyfrsh 4y agoI don't understand it either. The jump to assume malicious, borderline racist, attribution on thin evidence seems inappropriate. Unless there is embedded Unicode or linguistic patterns, demonizing a particular country and people smells rancid.
