NSA Hacking Group Hacked, Private Tools Leaker by “The Shadow Brokers”


A group of hackers going by the name “The Shadow Brokers” claims to have penetrated an NSA-backed hacking operation, and has leaked a bunch of hacking tools it claims is from the NSA. But that’s not all: the Shadow Brokers claim to have much more data, and are currently hosting a Bitcoin auction to sell it off to the highest bidder.

The hackers claim to have penetrated something called the “Equation Group,” a hacking organization widely believe to be the NSA. A sampling of the stolen files already posted shows similarity between the files and information revealed about the NSA’s hacking operations in the Snowden leaks.

The files mostly appear to be hacking tools and scripts, although it’s unclear how much the hackers made off with. Their announcement on Pastebin specifically keeps the details of the stolen files a secret, since “Equation Group not know what lost. We want Equation Group to bid so we keep secret.”

The big question is obviously whether the data is legit. The overt grab for money means this could just be a fake; post a bunch of promising-looking files and screenshots, and then hold an anonymous Bitcoin auction for the rest. The NSA makes sense as a target here, as there’s minimal information known about the Equation Group already, and the NSA is unlikely to comment too publicly on the hack.

If it proves to be true, this would be one of the highest-profile and most serious hacks in years. Otherwise, it’s just a neat fake, and a very bold plan to make quick cash.

Anti-piracy Technology Down by Voksi


In order to reduce piracy rates, especially in digital games, many developers and publishers who work with Denuvo. For the uninitiated, Denuvo itself a frightening specter for gamers pirated, because new games are now using as a shield Denuvo anti-piracy.

Is Voksi, people who recently found security flaws Denuvo, thus leading game made by Square Enix, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Just Cause 3 can be played for free. Cracker is known from Bulgaria is reportedly exploiting loopholes Denuvo through Steam application. Yet as we know, a group of renowned cracker, 3DM also raised their hands to break into security systems Denuvo on games that were released in 2016.
Even so, Voksi seems to still have to work hard for a non-Steam games coming from Ubisoft and EA Origin UPlay which also uses Denuvo still can not be penetrated by it. So likely Voksi using Steam as a bypass to Denuvo, because at the release of the game is always required to connect to the Steam account.
Approximately whether this is a sign of pirated games would return triumphant return? Given the awareness of gamers themselves now many who do not hesitate to buy the original game, either through the portal Steam, UPlay or Origin.
