Coronavirus: Russian hackers target Covid-19 vaccine research

Which part? This is a report identifying breaches from a specific group (APT29) and the relevant signatures to detect them. They are releasing this to warn private companies of breaches.

I don't see how it's a "joke" to release a report that could benefit the security posture of an organization. Isn't that what our governments' cyber security groups should be doing?

This time it's quite different that blaming another state for the result of the election you may not like. There is some significant evidence, there is a motive, and I dare say you can't really declare it a negative action in this case. If in this way they can save lives (even one!), good for them.

Did "Russian Hackers" meddle with the UK election too? Because this report is from the UK NCSC, not the NSA or US equivalent.

To me this whole report basically translates to "Someone did a nmap/nessus scan of some IPs and some people received phishing e-mails". And I really hope we won't ever have an actual real war over some Citrix admins not updating their internet facing systems and some employees clicking some spam e-mail...

>Legally, of course, it's a completely different issue

You mean vaccinate your population at a price every Russian can afford, or buy it at western prices?

This site also includes things of general interest; as far as it goes here; remove that and everyone would just harp about the "why we sleep" book or some common trope that's so stereotypical without the rest of this stuff.

It would be all about that book, and a few other stereotypes, or cliches, if it weren't for certain of this other things.

So this is stimulating. That story is 'current,' by the way, whichever way we swing it. So whatever; enjoy the show.

"Russian hackers target...", isn't such news somewhat related to HACKERnews?

This isn't a random news site that was created last week, it's a BBC article.

And, as another poster mention, it's literally Hacker News
