Aaron Barr: Sfida agli Anonymous per distruggere Wikileaks


HBGARY CEO OF THE FEDERAL CHALLENGE THE ANONYMOUS reveal the identities': BETWEEN THE MEMBERS ALSO DIFFERENT ITALIAN. BUT THE REAL GOAL IN A DETAILED PLAN AND 'THE DESTRUCTION OF Wikileaks

Di Mattia Paolinelli

exploited immediately Crowdleaks established with the new channel to talk about what-after the situation in Egitto- è il caso di cui al momento sono piene le cronache di Internet.

Questo caso ha un nome preciso, quello  di Aaron Barr, CEO della HBGary Federal, società specializzata in “servizi di sicurezza” che per mesi avrebbe collezionato informazioni sugli Anonymous e la loro struttura attraverso conversazioni sul canale IRC (la chat usata dagli Anonymous per comunicare) e scambi di mail.

AARON BARR

Non si sa se siano stati solo questi i canali supply Barr, nor is it somehow managed to find an insider and then open a gap within the organization, the fact is that at some point to consider is the same Barr completed the work and decide to throw in the February 4-mask-revealing the existence of the investigation from the pages of the Financial Times.

The reaction of Anonymous is not long in coming: the first computer attacked the Federal dell'HBGary take him out and replacing the home page of the company Barr this screen



and then took over more and Barr Twitter account by posting personal information such as address, phone number, social security number and an archive containing 50,000 messages on the mail account inside the HBGary .

addition the Anonymous have also decided to open a Twitter account alternative to that of Barr-complete with a caricature-where to put various grimaces and updates on the case.


The intent of the survey is not Barr a mystery, given that this was always amply clear on February 4 and always from the pages of the Financial Times. The aim was to disclose the true identities of all Anonymous, to locate and reveal the relationships and the degree of influence exercised by each individual within the community. Barr would have explained everything in his speech to the B-Sides security conference (the name probably will never be adopted in Italy for a conference) to be held in San Francisco on the 14th of this month.

Barr would also stated (February 7, Forbes) that his intention was not to disclose this information to the judicial authorities, but apparently did not know that when it comes to Wikileaks, the Anonymous or Hackers, FBI agents never fail as the questioning of witnesses Applebaum shortly after his speech at Defcon last year .

carelessness, naivete, ignorance or other, seemed to have thought there's Anonymous Barr to bring to reality. But Barr evidently knew the reality and its accounts had them in advance: digested the humiliation suffered by the publication of all its data and its email, the CEO of HBGary has indeed lived up to his promises-or, better, all threat-publishing (perhaps) the information in its possession without waiting a moment longer.

But it was really February 14 time X chosen by Barr? Or maybe the interview was a bait to see what they had in their hands by the Anonymous about him? Whatever the reason, for a time both players have revealed their cards, and at first glance that seemed to win the pot was Barr. Here you can find the information in fact made public on Anonymous, complete with names and surnames of its members among which are also our fellow countrymen.

Anonymous But they still had the proverbial ace in the hole and waited until the last minute to show it and mark-at least at the moment-the point of conclusion.

The survey Barr apparently it was part of a plan's largest and most ambitious plan includes not only the identification of the structure of Anonymous but also the structure of Wikileaks. Allegations? No, we have evidence, and these consist in the following document
























made six hands by Palantir Technologies The HBGary Federal (the company Barr) and Berico Technologies, which Wikileaks is not treated merely as a subject of investigation but as you can see is clearly identified as a danger. A danger that analyzed weaknesses and develop strategies against which to attack.

Here is the site of Palantir Technologies


What's HBGary Federal


And that's Berico Technologies


These three companies have seen their beautiful project the public domain and it is clear that for companies developing technologies for the intelligence and providing those who call themselves "the most innovative products in cyberdefense," the result is final di un grave smacco e di un importante danno alla propria credibilità.

D’altronde il mercato della tecnologia per l’ambiente del’intelligence è estremamente agguerrito ed è probabile che queste tre società avessero puntato molto, se non tutto, sul risentimento di certi ambienti governativi americani contro Wikileaks per riguadagnare terreno nei confronti di una quarta società. Quale?

Il suo nome coincide con quello che è il proprio prodotto di punta, ovvero il primo motore di ricerca analitica “temporale”: Recorded Future.


On Nautilus we had already devoted a long article that I invite you to read or reread. In short, the news was all over that in the development of this revolutionary software research and analysis accessible even in the partnership: none other than Google and the CIA.

Serve on a silver platter all the data about members of Anonymous, and Wikileaks could be an unexpected gift for the U.S. government and other names probably is an objective shared by other companies.

fact that although I have to say for this operation emerga la responsabilità (e probabilmente il finanziamento) della Bank of America, credo che tutti i potenziali asset fossero già orientati verso simili richieste: venissero queste avanzate dalla Bank of America come da qualunque altro soggetto. Ma comunque il collegamento con la BoA c'è e viene evidenziato da Wikileaks in questi termini:


Bank of America using Private Intel Firms to Attack Wikileaks


2011-02-09


In a document titled "The WikiLeaks Threat" three data intelligence companies, Plantir Technologies, HBGary Federal and Berico Technologies, outline a plan to attack Wikileaks. They are acting upon request from Hunton and Williams, a law firm working for Bank of America. The Department of Justice recommended the law firm to Bank of America according to an article in The Tech Herald . The prosed attacks on WikiLeaks according to the slides include these actions:



  • Feed the fuel between the feuding groups. Disinformation. Create messages around actions of sabotage or discredit the opposing organizations. Submit fake documents and then call out the error.




  • Create concern over the security of the infrastructure. Create exposure stories. If the process is believed not to be secure they are done.




  • Cyber attacks against the infrastructure to get data on document submitters. This would kill the project. Since the servers are now in Sweden and France putting a team together to get access is more straightforward.




  • Media campaign to push the radial and reckless nature of WikiLeaks activities. Sustain pressure. Does nothing for the fanatics, but creates concern and doubt among moderates.

  • Search for leaks. Use social media to profile and identify risky behavior of employees.


In any case, we certainty: beyond all other considerations on their genesis, Wikileaks and Anonymous are increasingly under a crossfire of public interests and private-is-in fact uniting their destinies. And always tell the facts if the weather is on the side of those interests or Assange and Guy Fawkes.

UPDATE

We have already and provide a first update is the same Anonymous. It seems to be around Aaron Barr Facebook under the pseudonym Julian Goodspeak looking for more information and contacts between Anonymous. The view is expressed in this note Facebook
