Great link GZ. One question, the wording "CNO efforts against" is it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_operations? Under US mil as "Information Warfare" How the US gov see/use the term?
Would it fall in the "terrorists, nation-states, and criminal groups" as a new terrorist definition or still under criminal law?
Thanks
I think the US is hoping that Syria kept its US/UK/French/German hardware network connected like in Serbia, Libya, Argentina (vs UK), Iran, Iraq...
The other view is to call the top staff in Syria and offer them a way out.
Have problems at a critical time and a new life 'anywhere' is offered when the freedom fighters surround your city.
Spin up the Russian tech and the fog of war gets very messy - no deal, no papers, no new life, no banking.
Just swarms of foreign 'freedom fighters' and their drone linked helpers.
Its seems to be that some regions are fine if they just export oil and buy US tanks/jets/buildings/bases - be good with the petrodollar use and ongoing US banking.
Once the real universities start, woman get educated, trade deals are looked at and internal nation building understands the reality of the petrodollar - classic freedom fighter/new colour time.
The same brand/database of "freedom fighters" seems to pop up at the perfect time, with new weapons, papers and funding. Some years as 'good' some years as 'evil'.
Somewhere in Moscow GRU, FSB, SVR, siloviki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silovik) are wondering is this just all a generational political fight between CIA and NSA contractors for political power?
Play the optics until the trap becomes clear.
Their endless hunt for cleared US staff goes on. All the online resumes with code words and colour pictures are found and sorted. Short on cash, a hidden past, just needing a new friend...
You have to wonder what generations where doing at the CS and math conferences around the world.... even with huge hints in the press about plain text from embassy hardware or other hardware, software~ reports.
I guess it was always a beta race - just get the software out and we can hide the better intensive 'code' needs with the next CPU generation.
Look how fast and responsive the new complex product is with the older code.
The software/hardware ships. The expert staff build the next products.
The idea would go back to WW1 with a slight need for extra funding in the 1920-30's.
The only other low point would have been in the 1990's as in CIA tensions.
Foreign stations, staffing, meaningful political power vs just been on endless sub-committees.
History shows a long hint of export grade units from the UK and USA for NATO and other friendly nation use. TEMPEST (compromising emanations) back to plain text ~ just been able to get near the physical plain text side was the way in.
Now we have the consumer OS and network code as the ENIGMA of the day... going up to other more complex exported hardware all on a known telco network.
The cost imposed where passed on as part of the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) generation of trade deals and worldwide standards.
The US was not going to allow their US vendors to have huge unique costs for domestic units, while international brands sold cheaper "encrypted" products of the same generation.
So we got the push for global law enforcement hardware and software entry on US terms.
My view is the NSA is fine with SSH - a security letter to a US provider if it the plain text is 'safe' on the US owned/hosted server.
If the encrypted message is passed on the hope is that a deep understanding of Apple or MS at an OS level will still allow for plain text to be recovered after tracking. http://cryptome.org/2013-info/09/nsa-br-mx/nsa-br-mx.htm hints at the fun tracking part if your nation is in good with most telcos ~ Mainway, Association, Dishfire, Goal...
Would the average create an air gap for encryption and decryption on average using another computer for networking only?
Well we got that sound clip from Syria....... What is strange is the lack of detail from the UK and the GCHQ listening post in Cyprus.
They have the range and skill to pick up everything in the region.
Yes GPG support outside the USA would be less easy for the US. You can have all the GPG support you want based in the USA. Or use a 'free' US brand of email.
Yet here we are using drones to hunt small groups over other nations airspace when they gather in larger groups:)
The legal 'magnitude" of what South America did, who they where funded and supported by and how the govs reached out into the wider world is useful to recall.
Cold think of them as a group of freedom fighters useful on many fronts and ways from killing Soviets in the 1980's, then to Serbia, the Chechen region, Libya, Iran, Somalia...
The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunduz_airlift (Airlift of Evil) should help you understand the wonderful deals that can be done by all sides for later use:)
A database if you like.
What are we uninformed, or in denial about Cold?
That the US has backed some wonderful freedom fighters for use in Syria?
The same type of people who where in Afghanistan/Iraq/Libya? Must be fun for the special forces training them....
They become such good freedom fighters again in such a short time:)

The term CNO is used. I wonder if that links back to some new law?

With that comes much needed law reform and an amazing rediscovery of the Fourth Amendment.

Time to air gap some parts of the communications networks and take a good look at that standard nation state hardware.

Yes its the network, the OS the hardware, the tracking... you can enjoy all the encryption you like in the middle.
It makes the domestic and international banking sector less hard for the NSA.

We did not care about Iraq when they where 'stopping' Iran. Now we care about mercenaries moving into Syria?
AC try searching a term like hex obfuscated javascript
At a good price MS would have this won. The luxury old Apple like price point is just not working.

Better at understanding the global needs of the US gov?
