So far, none of the #US #spy agencies approached has transferred the data, several people said. The unprecedented interest in data by officials at the #ODNI startled some senior agency ofcls, who have expressed concerns about the #counterintelligence & #privacy risks of aggregating what could be a large amount of sensitive information that may include references to intercepts of electronic communications on overseas targets…
A recently published book, The #Spy in the Archive: How One Man Tried to Kill the #KGB, by the former #BBC security correspondent #GordonCorera, references the episode:
The book revealed - #CIA was concerned that #MI6 has a mole in it's senior ranks. That immediately sends chills through the spine of #CounterIntelligence officers, amid panic about ‘another #Philby’.
So #MI5 launched #OperationWedlock, & it lasted up to 20 years, but they found nothing in the end.
“Iran clamps down on Mossad agents across the country”

“The crackdown led to the seizure of trucks carrying drones and explosives, as well as raids on locations where weapons and explosive devices were being manufactured—intended to support Israel's war and aggression against Iran”
Related: "The Department of Justice in December found that Russia was paying several rightwing influencers who repeated many of the false claims—and members of the Trump administration, including President Trump himself, have repeated them as well. That has blurred the line between foreign information warfare and legitimate political speech, which, of course, is exactly what such campaigns are designed to do.
“We’ve allowed this transition where now the identification of misinformation is censorship,” the congressional staffer said.
What are the implications of this shift? A poll out this week from journalist watchdog group NewsGuard and survey company YouGov found that almost a third of Americans now believe at least one false claim directly attributed to Russian state media outlets."

A week after that #hack, the #CISA recommended that users "discontinue use of the product" barring any mitigating instructions about how to use the app from #Smarsh.
Jake Williams, a fmr #NationalSecurity Agency #cyber specialist, said that, even if the intercepted text messages were innocuous, the wealth of #metadata - the who & when of the #leaked conversations & chat groups - posed a #counterintelligence risk.

Russia and China, have ramped up recruitment efforts targeting US federal employees—particularly those recently fired or at risk of termination. These efforts are unfolding aggressively on LinkedIn, where adversaries are reaching out under the guise of job opportunities, networking, and consulting.
If you are a federal employee or contractor, especially one with a security clearance, be cautious of unsolicited messages offering career opportunities, high-paying contracts, or overseas roles.
These recruitment attempts are designed to exploit individuals who may be facing uncertainty in their careers, using seemingly legitimate job prospects to extract sensitive information.
…the chaotic recent weeks inside the #FBI have raised concerns among current & former agents that distractions could cause a #terror plot or other #threat to go undetected.
Some agents say that there’s trepidation about pursuing cases related to Russian #counterintelligence or #criminal matters related to #Russia, in part because of fear that their work could be seen to clash w/the [#Trump] White House….

#DonaldTrump was recruited by #KGB in 1987 and given the codename "Krasnov", claims a former #Soviet intelligence officer. bombshell allegation made by Alnur Mussayev, former Kazakh intelligence chief, in FB post, reports the Mirror. The 71-year-old, who previously headed Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, said he had served in 6th Directorate of KGB in #Moscow, which was responsible for #counterintelligence support within the economy. This may disappear quickly https://uk.news.yahoo.com/donald-trump-recruited-kgb-codename-180759277.html
The agency normally would prefer not to put these names in an #unclassified system. Some fmr ofcls said they worried that the list could be passed on to a team of newly hired young software experts working w/ #ElonMusk & his #DOGE team. If that happened, the names of the employees might be more easily targeted by #China, #Russia or other foreign #intelligence services.
One fmr agency officer called the reporting of the names in an unclassified email a “#counterintelligence disaster.”

Online tour of the illicit arms trade organized by the military counterintelligence of the Security Service of Ukraine using Wild Hornets drones. #ArmsTrade #Counterintelligence
Definitely a meme about Junior Analysts in infosec.
Yep those ads for ~1m jobs in Cyber sure dried up quickly. Yep.
Blame the State Sponsored Malware that makes it all a moot point in Cyber unless you are tcpdumping that CALEA server from GammaGroup that caused you to ' officially get hacked ' or something, init?

@ricardoharvin @TonyStark It was clear, that Trump is a national security threat, after he traveled to Moscow on July 4th, 1987, & 2 months later had full-page ads in the Washington Post, the New York Times & the Boston Globe published, trying to drive wedges between the United States & her allies.
(Not only the Soviet) Intelligence agencies should have had their eyes on him at the time already.

Sick criminals at #Meta & #Google ruined my life with #GammaGroup's #FinFisher #FinSpy #Finsky for their #InsiderTrading of information by surveillance of me for the last two plus decades while I worked for #SunMicrosystems #BEASystems #OracleSystems & #CiscoSystems and now are running a disinfo campaign to destroy my credibility on #Meta for the past 17+yrs by lying about my past all to please their Russian / RINO handlers who are just #CounterIntelligence agents for #Trump / #Putin who were misled by bad #HUMIT...
So when you see the 'propaganda account I n Facebook claiming to be me' know that it IS a propaganda account run by a psychopath who is _CLAIMING_ to be me. Zachariah 'Not a Hacker - ZombZack@Gmail' Crocker confessed LIVE and ON CAMERA about this as a harassment account and also a #CounterIntelligence technique #Facebook #Meta #WhatsApp & the eye implants at the #Oculus accounts that stream your right eye sights and sounds, B R A G G E D about.
And before you go all off on some conspiracy rant. Know that #NanoTechExists, doofus.

This article touches on several key reproducible techniques that the #CI #GangStalkers on #Meta #Facebook #Instagram #WhatsApp who have also migrated over to #Telegram & #Signal now use methodology wise to #TargetedIndividuals most notably by putting #SSM™ #StateSponsoredMalware that is off the shelf from the #UK, aka #GammaGroup's #FinFisher #FinSpy #Finsky which is used to infect and cause #Trillions of dollars of #FinancialCrime hiding behind their #ProxyServers to #HideTheirLocation .
This is a common tactic for spreading #disinformation and #CharacterAssasination via #FakeProfiles posing as the target, the #TargetedIndividual perpitrated by #CI's #WhiteListedCriminals & #Pedophiles in #CounterIntelligence.
