... gibt es. Ob es ausgerechnet diejenigen sind, die wir im ÖPNV mit dem Handy vor dem Gesicht sehen, möchten wir bezweifeln. Zumindest ein 15-jähriger Italiener war clever genug das italienische Bildungsministerium zu hacken, um seine Noten zu verbessern.

Allerdings gelang es der italienischen Polizei auch, ihn "mit einer koordinierten Aktion zu identifizieren". Dabei kam heraus, dass es dem Hacker unter anderem auch gelang, die Routen von Handelsschiffen im Mittelmeer, insbesondere von Öltankern, umzuleiten - das kann teuer werden ...

Also entweder nutzen Bildungsministerium und Verkehrsministerium die gleiche IT oder das Bildungsministerium ist in Italien auch für die Schifffahrt zuständig.

Evolutie van Russische cybercrime

Evolutie van Russische cybercrime #NoName #DDoSia

We weten al lange tijd dat Rusland een freeheaven is voor cybercriminelen. Wat wij beschouwen als (cyber)criminaliteit wordt in Rusland anders gezien, sterker nog cybercriminaliteit is gewoon een legaal verdienmodel zolang het maar in lijn ligt met de geopolitieke doelen van de staat. Als gevolg hiervan zie je dat de Russische IT-markt zich sterk ontwikkeld in deze ‘gelegaliseerde’…

Gamechanger? How F-16s for Ukraine Will Shake-Up Russia's Plans

[samasmith23]

I ain’t gonna lie... when I first read the infamous Cyberwar storyline, I literally couldn’t help but burst out laughing at the sight of a holographic Scarlet Spider duplicate literally wrecking Manhattan!

Like... virtual reality does NOT work that way!

Unsurprisingly, even the writer of this particular issue, Howard Mackie said that his personal least favorite issue of The Clone Saga to write. Mackie even said that whenever fans have asked him to autograph that specific issue at conventions, he always groans and asks if they could have him sign a different issue instead!

Crisi tra Israele e Iran: Analisi Storica, Politica ed Economica

Profilo Storico Il conflitto tra Israele e Iran affonda le radici negli sconvolgimenti geopolitici del XX secolo e si è evoluto attraverso fasi molto diverse. Prima del 1979 i due paesi mantennero persino rapporti ufficiosi di cooperazione, ma la Rivoluzione Islamica iraniana segnò un punto di non ritorno, trasformando un’intesa pragmatica in un’ostilità dichiarata. Da allora, una serie di…

Überwacht von ganz "normalen" Apps

Sogar bis in die gestrige Tagesschau hat es das verbrecherische Verhalten von Datenhändlern geschafft. Wie der stern (s. Link unten) berichtet, will der Datenhändler Gravy Analytics aus den Daten diverser Smartphone Apps Kapital schlagen. Sie verkaufen unsere Standortdaten - und damit unser tägliches privates Verhalten.

Die Daten ziehen sie aus Apps, wie Wetter Online, Spiele-App Block Blast, die Ebay-Tochter Kleinanzeigen, Tinder, Candy Crush und Microsoft Office 365, Flight Radar24 u.v.m. Hacker waren auf die Datenbestände des genannten Unternehmens gestoßen und spielten sie dann dem Medienunternehmen 404 Media zu.

Der "Klau des Datenklaus" offenbarte, dass über Millionen von Smartphone-Nutzern Standortdaten gesammelt und zum Verkauf angeboten wurden. Die Datensätze enthielten nach einem Post auf LinkedIn

die einmalige Telefon-ID,

die App, von der die Daten stammen,

GPS-Daten,

die Nutzerdaten,

das Smartphone-Modell,

den Mobilfunkprovider

und vieles mehr ...

Von den Apps Tinder, Flight Radar24 und Grindr liegt inzwischen die Aussage vor, dass sie an den oben genannten Datenhändler keine Daten weitergeben. Wetter Online und Kleinanzeigen haben bisher aus Nachfragen nicht reagiert. Die Datensammlungen können möglicherweise durch Funktionserweiterungen der Apps, sogenannten SDKs, entstanden sein. Diese SDKs sind Programmbausätze, die es erlauben den Funktionsumfang von Apps zu erweitern. Doch wer erweitert dann die Apps? Geschieht dies bereits in den App Stores oder auf den Geräten der Endnutzer?

Es lohnt sich den Artikel bis zum Ende zu lesen ...

Russian Sabotage Plot Targets European Cargo Planes, Raising Security Concerns

Recent intelligence from Western officials has unveiled a suspected Russian plot to plant incendiary devices on cargo planes in Europe, with test incidents reportedly occurring in Britain and Germany over the summer. According to sources who spoke on condition of anonymity, the devices were placed at DHL logistics hubs in Birmingham, England, and Leipzig, Germany, resulting in minor fires. Though these incidents caused minimal damage, they underscore the escalating threat posed by Russian sabotage activities targeting Western infrastructure.

The operation is believed to be the work of Russia’s GRU military intelligence agency, known for its history of clandestine operations across Europe. While the motive behind this specific plot remains unclear, officials suggest it could serve as a warning or a show of Russia’s capability to disrupt Western logistics and commercial operations. The plot, however, is seen as part of a broader strategy to impose costs on nations supporting Ukraine, as tensions between Russia and the West have intensified amidst the ongoing conflict.

Western Security Heightened as Plot Details Emerge

The implications of these incidents have prompted Western intelligence agencies to examine whether the plot was a prelude to more severe attacks, including potential destruction of planes on American runways or midair bombings targeting U.S.-bound cargo. Officials noted that while such extreme scenarios are considered unlikely due to the high risk of retaliation from the U.S., the idea that Moscow might entertain such possibilities has heightened Western vigilance. This shift aligns with a larger pattern of “horizontal escalation” observed in Russia’s approach, where it cautiously intensifies acts of aggression without fully provoking NATO allies.

In response, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has introduced additional security measures for certain cargo shipments heading to the United States. While there is currently no active threat against U.S.-bound flights, officials have acknowledged the need for heightened security and proactive countermeasures. DHL confirmed its collaboration with authorities in a statement addressing the incidents, emphasizing its commitment to safeguarding its network and workforce.

Russia’s Expanding Sabotage Campaign in Europe

The suspected cargo plane plot is only one element in an expanding Russian sabotage campaign aimed at destabilizing European nations. Officials reported incidents of vandalism, arson, and targeted attacks, many carried out by criminal proxies under GRU direction. This strategy allows Moscow to maintain plausible deniability while continuing its disruptive operations. Recent high-profile cases include the assassination of a Russian defector in Spain and attempts on the lives of prominent European figures.

Experts say that European expulsions of Russian operatives in recent years have forced Moscow to rely more heavily on criminal networks to conduct Russian sabotage, a shift that, while providing flexibility, has also introduced inconsistencies in execution. Britain’s domestic intelligence agency, MI5, recently warned of Russia’s “increasing recklessness” in these activities. Intelligence leaders suggest this reliance on criminal proxies renders Russian efforts less professional, though still potent.

Western officials continue to monitor these developments as European and American intelligence agencies coordinate efforts to counter these threats. With the GRU remaining a key player in Russia’s shadow war, security agencies remain alert to the evolving tactics Moscow may employ in its campaign against Ukraine’s allies.

Draft 3

Title: The Game of Shadows Year: 2104

War isn't about bombs anymore. It’s about data—tiny fragments of information that decide everything now. This new battlefield? It’s in our minds.

I’m Kara, 12 years old. I was chosen for my ability to solve complex puzzles, and now I play The Game of Shadows. This isn’t a game on screens or with controllers—it’s a real, high-stakes battle in a digital network called the Grid. Our world may still look like a city of skyscrapers and holograms, but beneath the surface, we're fighting.

The city around me is filled with towering buildings humming with the buzz of quantum processors and fiber networks. Neon ads flash across windows, reacting to our thoughts. But sometimes, when the enemy breaches our defenses, those bright screens turn dark, displaying threatening messages instead of friendly offers.

I was only seven when they took me, trained me to use my mind to dive into the Grid. We’re called Shadows because no one sees us in action, but every move we make has real consequences. One wrong step, and systems collapse—people could get hurt.

They tell us that the enemy is just another country or faction. But all I see are other kids, like me, trying to survive in a game none of us chose. The adults say the war will end once we win, that life will go back to how it was. But I don’t believe them. Each time I plug into the Grid, I feel like I’m losing a bit more of myself. I’m 12 years old, navigating a war in a world I can’t control, playing a game that grows darker with each passing day.
