Re: NYT covers China cyberthreat
Be sure to read the source: intelreport.mandiant.com/Mandiant_APT1_Report.pdf I'm only part way through, but I find it hard to believe that only micro$loth computers are used as the attack OS. Maybe I haven't gotten far enough through report to find the part where they use the *nix boxes? scott
If I didn't miss any part of the report, no *nix is mentioned. I'm a *nix fan, but why they (when I say they, I mean an attacker, not necessary the one in this document) should complicate their life, when all tools are available for windows os, you just have to compile them.
