The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has several patents to companies, including “excessive infiltration forensic and data collection technologies”, which allow everything to collect traffic from network devices from the acquisition of encrypted endpoint data and mobile forensic, which is a report from Santinlabs, a division of security vendors.
Dakota carryThe author of the report said in an email on Thursday COSONline The most important piece of new information shining from conclusions is that “China’s contracted ecosystems forces many companies and individuals to cooperate on infiltration. This means that many China-based advanced continuous constant dangers (APTs) can actually have many different companies with many different customers.”
The country’s diverse private sector aggressive ecosystems, he said, “supports a wide array of infiltration capabilities. Mapping is being observed back to tulling back to a cluster, actually cannot represent the actual organization structure of the attackers.”
In 15 page reportHe said that earlier this month, the US Department of Justice (DoJ) released one Prosecution Among the two hackers, Xu Zevei and Zhang U, accused of working on behalf of the Chinese State Security Ministry (MSS), said, “PRC sheds new lights on the contracted ecosystem. The prosecution said that Ju and Jhang said that Ju and Jhang worked for two firms, which were already unwanted for the hafan.
Zoo, who was arrested in Italy on 3 July and is facing extradition in the US, was involved with a company called Shanghai Powerock, while Zhang, who lives largely, was with Shanghai Firetech.
Hacking outfits Tier System
Carrie said in the report, “The DOJ said that (the pair) worked in the ‘Disha’ of the Shanghai State Security Bureau (SSSB) … This ‘directed’ directed ‘nature’ of the relationship between SSSB, and both these companies include the edge system of aggressive hacking outfits in China.”
In addition, the DOJ prosecution said, “The declaration of allegations against Xu is the latest, describing the use of a broad network of private companies and contractors in the PRC, which is to hack and steal information from the way the PRC government’s participation is obscured.”
Carrie said that Sentinlabs have identified 10+ patents filed in PRC, who were registered by American prosecution as the Hafanium Threat actor Group as working on behalf of American prosecution.
He said, “Remote automated evidence collection software, Apple Computer Comprehensive Evidence Collection Software, Router Intelligent Evolution Collection Software, and Computer Scene Rapid Evolution Collection Software.”
Shanghai Firetech said that Carrie operates aggressive hacking under the direction of SSSB. “The company also has patents on a variety of aggressive devices, suggesting individuals’ homes to monitor the houses, such as intelligent home appliance analysis forums, long distance home computer network intelligent control software, and evidence collection software of intelligent home equipment, which can support monitoring of individuals abroad.
Luke McAnamaraDeputy Chief Analyst of Google Threat Intelligence Group said that the findings of the report “Align with what we understand about the nature of state-provided cyber espionage in China, and show the role of these enterprises more, which are able to enable the large ecosystem of danger to China, with increasing volumes, with increasing volumes,”
Patent puzzle
John EndDigital infrastructure practice lead lead in information-technical research group said, “A weapon system is a weapon system, even if regardless of the means or materials of construction. Are we really surprised that some units other than the Western military industrial complex will see some units patent techniques, whose main objectives will be seen (at least) is important for their self-proclaimed interests?”
As the nation-state pursues their own agenda (political, commercial, or others) from alternative means, he said, “It is a dependent on global leaders to adjust their views to protect the commercial and political interests of their own citizens.”
However, patent filing surprised David ShipliCanadian Safety Awareness Training Provider Head of Beauceron Security. “Honestly, I didn’t get it,” he said. “It just looks so dumb. The entire point of a patent system is to encourage inventors to innovate by the need of inventors to disclose the unique elements of an invention, it encourages others to develop better processes, design and equipment.”
Shipli said, “In short, by paterning their views, companies are giving others a blueprint for their views. Also, they are showing their hand in adequate detail to platform providers so that they can fix those issues. If they were concerned about intellectual property protection, then these business secrets have to be kept as a smelter IP strategy. Are. ”
