Security News last hours being rich, here is a synthesis of two pieces of information that caught my attention.
First, the Anonymous remain on the podium because, according to Fox News, * a decrypted version of Stuxnet would be available. My analysis is that this information, which I already spoke before yesterday , acts as a decoy: Wikileaks and since her blond angel in the news, there is a cyber offensive to some misinformation provided media (probably in full agreement with their respective governments) that Anonymous whose landmark feat of arms was to attack ( successfully ) servers to the security company HB Gary Federal . In the end, Ira Anonymous do with a virus designed to specifically address the centrifuges at Natanz or turbines Bashehr ? Address other nuclear sites, U.S. those? Bigger is more things going on!
A cut above ("More is huge, the better it goes"), you learn a daring attack and state (!) Targeted the Foreign Office (British Ministry of Foreign Affairs) last month . It is the Minister himself who announced, without citing the source of the country. A source however has made it clear that China was behind the attack. A few lines later, we know a little about this "attack": three unfortunate emails to executives in high places, with an attachment trapped with malicious code. Fortunately, these malicious emails before they were detected can not be opened.
Morality: a State, a technical capability (and intrusive) proved, would it be stupid enough to launch an attack as trivial as not concealing its origin? Knowing full well that the detection devices are effective enough to identify this type of malicious code? I know we have entered the Chinese year of the rabbit but it was he escaped from Alice (in Wonderland)?
