When we are talking about information, what CIA or NSA delivers, we must understand that there would be many operations and projects, what have the same name. And the accomplisher of the mission would determine the purpose of the project. So when we are thinking about Project or Operation "MAGNET", we might first analyze, what kind of thing is the "Magnet". It is the thing, what pulls other objects to it, and that's why I think that the real version of this project is to build "honeypot servers", what mission would be to catch hackers from the Internet.


"Honeypot" servers  are filled with the most addictive information, like drawings of the "top secret" military planes, but the information, what this kind of server involves is one problem, even those aircraft could be secret, the vital information has been changed, and the computer programs, what are in those servers contains very dangerous code. Those servers mission is to track the hostile operators from the Internet, and they are also used to deliver the "hoax-information".  When somebody would hack into the system,  the server would offer very much interesting information. The information, what hacker is searching helps to profile the employers of that person.


Criminals are interested in the names of the undercover agents, and the military intelligence is interested in the top-secret tanks and aircraft. The information what that hacker wants uncovers the reason and motive for that operation. By using those servers the intelligence might deliver information, what causes chaos in the targeted organization. And one of the best way to cause disorder in the drug cartels is delivered hoax information, that their best gunmen are working for DEA. This would cause the violence between those gangsters. The secret aircraft might be made with wrong materials, that means, they could be dangerous for their pilots.



Code, what is downloaded would link the homepages to other targets, what contains specially modified data. In the worst scenario, the MAGNET would set the "Trojan horse" type virus to the targeted system. That computer virus would be delivered in the files, what are downloaded. The code has been set in the place of "dead code", and then the virus would be connected by using robot program, what would connect those code lines. But also this server can replace the parts of the operating system with its own code, and that means, that operating system turns to computer virus, and the trick is quite easy in theory.


The place, where Windows or any other operating system downloads packages would be changed to another server, and then the server can replace all operating system with virus code. Those codes can also make possible to shut down the system in the critical moment.  And that could be devastating if it happens in the war. This is why that kind of servers must be dodged because they would take entire computer system in the control.

The thoughts about "WikiLeaks"

http://metsantarinoita.blogspot.com/p/the-thoughts-about-wikileaks-kimmo.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The thing what might seem nothing may have more meaning, what you ever imagine, and this is the very good way to think when we are going to make little information leak from the NSA. We might want to use some well-known homepage for that action, and why don't we choose the "Wikileaks for that thing, where we would release 2000 pages top secret material to those servers.  The question, what becomes important in this case, is who pays Assange's phone bill?


Of course, there seem to be many servers around the world, what would support that kind of actions, and the next thing, what might be interesting is, who pays the electric bill of those departments, where those servers would stay? Those questions are things, what is very important when we are making the data leaks to the Internet. Also, when seeing that Mr. Assange is traveling very much, we might want to know about who pays for those tickets?


In the real life there are many ways to screw up on the Internet, and one is to make data leaks without thinking those questions because in the worst cases, those servers can be actually "honeypots", what tracks the persons and their IP-addresses from the Internet, and there is one thing, what makes me believe that at least one part of this network is meant for use as the "honeypots", and it is, that none of those servers are isolated from the Internet. This kind of network, of course, should be attractive for the persons, who want to share secret or confidential information across the Internet.


And the technology, what is used in that kind of devices is very nasty. That server could sometimes track the deliverer of that information in seconds, but there is the very big possibility, that this server would deliver a different kind of information for the computers, what is used by leaking the data. Sometimes those "honeypots" would start to round the data, what is meant for the deliverer of the data thru them, and that allows making the illusion, that those data, what the deliverer have sent actually seen in there.


"Honeypots" are trap servers, what mission is to track the hackers, and some of them are copying the IP-address of those computers, but some of those servers can also track the place of the computer, and take the control of those devices cameras and audio-system. They can also connect the computer viruses to the material, what is delivered from that system, and that might collapse the computers, what is downloading the material, and those viruses can be connected to the PDF-documents. Some of them might open the back gate to the system, and the honeypot can now track all data, what is delivered to that computer. In this case, the tracking software would set every data package, what is delivered from that computer the tracking cookie, what would guide the data packages thru the tracking server.


Then somebody starts to leak the information to the Internet, would the "honeypot-server" just set the little cookie in that internet connection. This cookie would set the stable IP-virtual server in that system. And even if the user of the computer uses dynamic-IP, what means that the IP-address of the system changes every time when it would put on, would there still be stable IP in somewhere at the net, and when this computer would put in the net, would the data start to surround thru the "honeypot".  The meaning of this operation would be provocative other leakers to put their information to that server, what would help to track those persons.

Privacy and national security are complicated combinations

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Privacy and national security are complicated questions, and they are the very large operational area for IT-specialists and lawmakers. The major problem with connecting privacy and national security involves the question ”whose security is national security”? This means that nobody actually ever mentioned, is ”national security” only the security of national leaders, or is it serving also public security and regular people. When we are thinking about the situation, where ”national security” allows to censor all data, what is not serving the rulers of the government, we think that we are going to wrong way. When we are thinking about data collection, we must notice that nobody cares that thing before the German top politician Angela Merkel was eavesdropping by NSA, and then the newspapers were very shocking about this case.


But before that nobody actually cares, how much private data this intelligence service have been collected, and how much this data have been delivered across the Atlantic by UKUSA intelligence co-operation between GCHQ and NSA. Also, nobody ever thought that NSA global surveillance network ECHELON could be the threat, but then the top politicians eavesdropped, and then newspapers woke up. They screamed that this kind of operations are illegal, and the intelligence co-operation between NATO electronic intelligence community must stop. ”Real soldiers”don't eavesdrop their enemies, and the international trust must base that opposite part is trusted because they say something.


”In God we trust, others we monitoring” is a mark of paranoia, was mentioned in some newspapers, and in the same time, the Facebook and other social media wanted to be banned, because that kind of things can cause embarrassing situations for some people. Social media can uncover if the person doesn't have those opinions, what he or she is claimed to have. If some person is known as the ”great person”, we must say that there must be some reason for that. And if the person has good opinions, we must ask sometimes ”why it doesn't be visible on social media”? Of course, the Russian government has their own style to work in the field of national security. They just prohibit every service, what they cannot control.


This is the very dangerous thing. If we have the situation, that nobody allowed to say anything, could some terrorists hide in the system, and then they can make very much destruction. Here we must ask ”how many school shootings have been prevented because the shooters were made mistakes in social media”. Or ”how many pedophiles and drug dealers have been identified by using social media”? Social media is the very good tool for collecting information by people personal life. Technical methods are very easy, the pictures, what is downloaded to the Internet can be isolated many details. Sometimes in those pictures is seen firearms, what are illegal or marks of using drugs.


Of course, those pictures are very dangerous in the wrong hands. Also, the prisoners or drug dealers identities can be used in social media for collecting data for persons, who want to make contact with those people. But this kind of data can also be misused. Those pictures, what are in social media can be made with computers and they can be used for denigrating some person. And that's why this media can turn into the false world, where nothing is real. Also, the surveillance files can be faked by some members of security service. This is the real problematic situation on the Internet.


The posters can be set in the walls by using image manipulation programs, and then those pictures can be delivered to the social media. This is not the very nice thing. If some person has automatic weapons in the home and then takes a couple of pictures at home, the location would of assault rifles and another kind of stuff deliver to the hands of the local motorcycle club. But also if somebody forgets the GPS on, and claims that he or she is a business meeting, could this be very embarrassing, if that person is locating in some ”Red light district”. Also, the embarrassing situation can cause in the case when somebody plays cleaner but then uncovers that this person is actually the owner of some cleaning company.


Also some ”garage companies” have uncovered that the owners are sons and daughters of some top members of the business community. This is very tasteless in my mind, especially in the case, that this person gives statements, that students should pay their lectures or that this person ever got the financial support from the government. If they never mentioned that they are members of the very wealthy families, and get everything, what they want, could be embarrassing if they claim to be cleaners or something like that. So this is one opinion about social media. If you have better opinions write it on the Internet.

The spy ship USS Pueblo's seajacking 23.1.1968.

USS Pueblo (AGER-2)
1n 1967
(Picture 1)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The case of the spy ship USS Pueblo began 50 years ago 23.1.1968 when the North-Korean government seajacked American spy ship USS Pueblo near the coast of North Korea. The incident and hostage situation remained in 11 months and after that USA was retired, and the extortionate sailors returned home. In that incident, the USAF was ready to attack in North Korea with the nuclear weapons and F-105 Thuderchief fighter-bombers.


The seajacking of that ship was the very serious thing, and on that ship were many NSA:s highly classified papers. And the spy equipment of that ship was going to hands of North-Korea. Those documents were not involved the most secret files, but this incident was the very bad thing for NSA, what was the classified agency in that time, and of course, the diplomatic way was better than open warfare against that small country. The spy ship didn't have anything so classified, what NSA couldn't replace, but that case was shown that spy ships are good targets for attack.

F-105 "Thunderchief"
(Picture 2)

And what is the most important thing, what NSA noticed, is that there must always be the system, what replaces another if this kind of unpredictable thing would happen. And of course, the most important thing in those cases is that every code table must be replaced by the new one if some code books will go to hands of the terrorists. But when we are thinking about the "case Pueblo" in the way of the intelligence, this kind of action could be the fiasco.


The opponent would get the information of the attack, and the codebooks were changed immediately when the alarm was given. And if we are starting to speculate about this kind of things, we must say that the radio-equipments of that ship could send the information about the radio-transmissions during the operation. In some scenarios, some "half secret" aircraft would be given to the opponent, and then this plane would take to the best military base, where it would investigated by the military and engineer stuff, what the opponent has, and then the automatized systems inside that wreck would give the information about the military base.


In some stories the "UFO, what was dropped to Roswell" was actually the trojan horse what was slipped in the most secret military base in the USA. I used this case as an example of the way of thinking, what the military intelligence has. They might try to slip the spy plane or spy ship to the best military base what the enemy has, and then automatized spy systems might record the pictures and electronic voices of that complex.


And also they might have the sniffers to make the chemical analyses about fuel, and if we use our imagination, we must think that those trojan horses would also scan the DNA from the workers of the base. And then some agent will get some work to the date and offers the person sodium amytal, and then that agent could ask the questions about this top-secret base.

Linux-viruses can risk the human lives if they are slipped in the nuclear plants.

Picture 1

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The risks of the Linux operating system can danger the national security in physical level. Information security of Linux operating system is the key element when the system delivers will select their operating systems for mission-critical components like firewall servers and other parts of the system, where the key element is the absolute stable action even if the computer virus has been infected the system. Earlier the Linux has been very safe and resistant to computer viruses. The architecture of the Linux is different than Windows, and the viruses could destroy only the databases or data, what is in the same directory than the computer virus is, and that made the Linux very resistant against the computer viruses.


But the problem is that if the virus writer knows the right directory, could this person make the virus, what deletes the kernel of the Linux, or if the programmer can make the file, what makes multiple copies of itself, and then that virus could set itself in the directories, what is filled with the files, what is necessary for example web-store homepages, could the destruction be very devastating. In this scenario, the computer virus deletes only the files of LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP)-server or it will remove very many files, what are important for working of that operating system.


The removing the files of the web-store will be enough to stop the work of the business, and the reason putting the virus in somebody's system might be sabotaging the target's business. In the past, the Linux has been seen very safe and stable operating system, but then the Iranian nuclear program has been monitored with the vulnerable program, what was created by the NSA.


The problem is that ultimate surveillance tool was stolen from the laboratories of Fort Meade, and that was shown the thing, that those same programs might use to get information from any computer in the world. And this kind of program is very problematic because there might be stolen very many copies of that code by using PDF-documents or Text documents, what have been copied to the USB-disk, and then those codes can be copied to the C++ editor or whatever the programming language in those programs was.


The program might have many more versions, and some of those versions were meant for destroying the Linux operating system because, in the war, the Russian nuclear missile systems will try to make useless by deleting the operating systems of those warheads and operating consoles. The targets for those data weapons might also be highly computerized and automatized fighters and other tactical equipment.  Also, that computer malware programs can use as the sabotage the nuclear plants because if those laboratories databases and operating systems would be destroyed, the system might even explode.


There is proves that some of that malware programs were meant to modify the calibration of the centrifuges, what separates the plutonium from other material, what comes out from the reactor, and if the centrifuge rolls too fast, it will cause the situation, where the separation process will create too rich plutonium. And that will cause the nuclear explosion in that laboratory. Those computer viruses can be extremely devastating if they will slip in the military nuclear sites like "Pantex" and "Mayak", where they can cause very bad damages because those plants are making the large part of their states nuclear stockpile.

The use of social media as the psychological warfare platform

(Source: Internet)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The mentally unstable persons are the problem on the Internet, and social media is a double-barreled thing to work with public safety. When we are talking about the violence, the social media might help to track the unstable persons from the Internet, and also there might be found the people, who are planning to make the violent actions against somebody else. If some gang members are taking their plans to attack against some other persons, the law enforcement could deny that attempt by making a trap to that person.


When we are talking about the persons, who are representing their guns in the net, and talks about violent actions, this kind of thing might cause that another user will report those talking to the officials, and probably some shooting incidents have been prevented. Also, some drug dealers and the sexual predators have caught because they have used social media for making contacts with children or offered narcotics to people. If somebody makes threats in the social media, that stuff can copy, and then send to the police. There is another side of the social media, and it’s very frightening.


 The social media can be used in the psychological operations, what are lead by military intelligence. In those next-generation psychological operations are used the information of the IP-addresses and strong identity to target the psy-ops to the right persons. The really terrifying psychological warfare method if the precisely guided homepages, what uses the example the flash pictures and subliminal communication against only the specific targets. In those scenarios, only the listed persons have targeted those commanding methods, what created in the MKULTRA or MONARCH-project.


The homepage could be some computer game, what needs the registration, and when the targeted person starts to play that game, the subliminal commanding system starts to push the infrasound and flash pictures to this targets neuro-system. And the problem is that nobody can’t track those homepages, and warn about that system. In the terrible scenarios, there are some people, who target this kind of actions to the children, and start to brainwash them to obey some “master”. This kind of homepage can be established on the Facebook, and even if that looks like normal Facebook-pages, the codes of that thing might be customized for that kind of work.


Somebody thinks that there might be that psychological warfare homepages in some "honeypots", what mission is to addict hackers to stay a long time on those servers, and then they are able to track from the Internet. But the problem is that kind of stuff can be used to make those people aggressive, and it can cause terrible situation if that kind technology goes wrong hands or something goes wrong in this kind of operation. The result could be death for some people. And somebody thinks that that kind of honeypots might be the good tool for contracting the capable persons for service of NSA or another intelligence services.
