The Next Russian Attack Will Be Far Worse than Bots and Trolls""

Hackers could exploit networks to get user passwords.
The latest WPA3 WiFi security and authentication standard may be suffering from serious safety flaws of its own.
This is according to a group of researchers - Mathy Vanhoef and Eyal Ronen, who issued a report called “Dragonblood – A Security Analysis of WPA3’s SAE Handshake”, which identifies design flaws in the WPA3 standard's Dragonfly key exchange, hence the Dragonblood name.
They disclosed a total of five vulnerabilities, four of which could be used to recover user passwords, while the fifth one could be used to ‘only’ crash WPA3-compatible access points.
The details about the vulnerabilities, how they operate and how they attack the network can be found on this link.

The surveillance equipment was actually manufactured in China, raising concerns that Beijing could have used it for spying, prosecutors said.

The surveillance cameras and other equipment that Aventura Technologies sold for years to the United States military looked like solid American products, packaged in boxes with “Made in the U.S.A.” labels and stars-and-stripes logos.
The items were installed throughout government agencies, including on aircraft carriers and a Department of Energy facility. Then last year, a service member on an Air Force base noticed that an Aventura body camera displayed Chinese characters on the screen.
On Thursday, federal prosecutors in Brooklyn said that the equipment had actually been made in China and was vulnerable to hacking, raising the possibility that American government agencies had installed software in their security networks that could be used for spying by China.
In a 40-page complaint, prosecutors unsealed criminal charges against Aventura, of Commack, N.Y., and seven of its current and former employees. The defendants were accused of lying to their American customers for more than a decade about the Chinese origins of the company’s products.
