Is it me or ... Is it a huge coincidence that certain of the *big* security companies seem to mostly find state sponsored malware unleashed by specific states? States other than that in which they're based.
- I'm thinking, for example, of Kapersky Labs who seem to spend a lot of their time finding malware allegedly written by the US and our allies. (I would never be so crass as to mention their KGB connection ... oops)
- I'm also thinking of Mandiant, who seem to have a remarkably good handle on what the Chinese are unleashing. (I would never be so crass as to mention their US Air Force connection ... oops)
Tin Foil Hat Query #2
Is it me or ... Is it a huge coincidence that within a couple of weeks
- The White House releases the Presidential Order regarding protecting critical infrastructure
- They start talking about addressing cyber theft of trade secrets (with China of course)
- Mandiant just happens to release their blockbuster APT1 report about China?
Just asking ...
