Here’s some programming related information on the details of how the NSA hacking group, called “Equation Group”, operated and were found before the Snowden Wikileaks dump a few days ago.
NSA and CIA both have groups of 20 - 100 people that spend all day hacking everything computer related, documenting it and testing it. Everything means Windows, macOS, Linus, Sun, iOS, Android, Smart TVs and anything that has an operating system and a USB port or an ethernet connection. They even provide the programmers with “programming standards” and “dos and don’ts” when writing a hack so that it cannot be traced back to the NSA or CIA. These guys are the most sophisticated hackers in the world. And we are paying for it since they are U.S. Government employees. Now WE know all THEIR secrets. Ironic, isn’t it… Fascinating information if you are a programmer. https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/ https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/03/after-nsa-hacking-expose-cia-staffers-asked-where-equation-group-went-wrong/ Tim ******************************************** Tim Nevels Innovative Solutions 785-749-3444 timnev...@mac.com ******************************************** ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
