As usual, the MSM is running with Fake News.
Want the real story?
...The [utility] company released a statement on Friday night saying that the malware
code had been detected during a scan of a single company laptop.
However, soon after publication of the Post’s story, it was revealed
that the malware had only infected a utility company laptop that had no access whatsoever to the electrical grid. ...
Umnnnnnhhhhh, yah....some rummy got phished and his/her laptop is now Property of Hackers.
But was it The Russians???
Maybe, but more likely not.
...how does one prove not only intent but source in a world of
cyberespionage, where planting false flag clues and other Indicators of
Compromise (IOCs) meant to frame a specific entity, is as important as
the actual hack.
Robert M. Lee, CEO and founder of cybersecurity company Dragos, which
specializes in threats facing critical infrastructure, also noted that
the IOCs included “commodity malware,” or hacking tools that are widely
available for purchase....
Sorta like claiming it was a truck because it had a diesel engine.
