Think spoofed call stacks are clever? There's truth in the shadows.

It isn’t clear how they obtained legal authority to disrupt the system. If the FBI wants to access (hack) a system to find out where it is, or even image it remotely, theres a warrant for that. No idea if they can get one to wreck shit up too.
Europol, US, and authorities of 11 others, conducted operations to take down Hive ransomware operators. It was super effective. Law enforcement identified decryption keys and shared them with many of the victims, helping them regain access to their data europol.europa.eu/media-press/ne…

Quantum decryption is getting closer. But, like, not very much just yet…
Another report of factorising numbers (breaking encryption keys) using a quantum computer/algorithm. 48-bit integer 261980999226229 using 10 trapped-ion qubits. Claim to be on path to break RSA-2048. Seems that a lot of groups sit on the same idea/concept. arxiv.org/pdf/2301.11005…

This thread is good documentation of an interesting talk.
The last session at enigma2023 kicks off with "Myths and Lies in InfoSec" from Adrian Sanabria, Tenchi Security

The smart thing for Russia to do is to exploit the “contradictions” between Sweden and Turkey to disrupt the NATO membership bid. This is a clever provocation.
A reporter who works for RT paid for a right wing Danish politician’s travel and permits to burn a Koran in front of the Turkish embassy in Sweden. Turkey is furious and the NATO membership is stalled.
I can’t see this sort of trick preventing Sweden from joining NATO, but there will definitely be delays.
The Koran burning protest that infuriated Turkey and derailed Sweden’s NATO application was organised by Russia.
