Who takes a part in other countries internal politics?


http://kirjabloggaus.blogspot.com/2018/07/who-takes-part-in-other-countries.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The great point of meeting between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump is closing, and here is one very interesting notification about this meeting, and about criticising those leaders. The thing is, that Trump is prosecuted by taking a part in the United Kingdoms internal politics because he said something about it. But meanwhile, the Russian military personnel are charged with hacking the computers in the election process of the United States president.


And this is a very bad thing because hacking of those computers can influent the result of the election. This is the very interesting thing because if some intelligence service would want to influent the election of other states leaders, that is taking part in internal politics of that country. When we are talking about how those leaders would be dealing with media, we are noticing that is a difference about attitudes, what is tolerated by those leaders. Everything, what Putin makes is right, but when Trump says something, he makes everything wrong.


There is something that makes Russian intelligence operations more acceptable than United States intelligence operations. And I must say that this is the very interesting attitude. By the way, the term "intelligence operation" means actually the getting information. The hacking of the computers and influence the internal politics of some other land is "covert action", or "Black Operation". And when we are thinking about the situation, that Russian intelligence officers have made the influential action in the election campaign, that would happen by order of Kreml or somebody else, and this kind of actions can be marked that every connection to the head of the state would deny.


That means that the persons, who might be behind that action are covered. Maybe Putin knew that or maybe he didn't know about those hackings. But there are also other people, who might claim that Putin was involved because that would slow the investigations. This hacking brought some thoughts to my mind. One of them is "how many times this has made before?". I think that those persons, who are behind that operation might not be first-timers for making that kind of things. And how many times that kind of influence has been given to the election campaigns in the small countries, what would not be so loudly to protect their benefits? So is there other nations, where is made this kind of hacking operations, where the election of the head of the state has been influenced by cyber operations, what are made by the foreign actor?


One part of information operations is that the enemy would tell that the resistance would be doomed even before the war have begun. The opponent is trying to metalize the targeted nations, that they would not have any change in the real military conflict. And after that, the "wise men" would lay down their weapons and start to take a spoon in their beautiful hand, and start to follow the opponent's orders. There is one thing that information warfare specialists always highlight. That is that "why own military personnel must risk their lives for some other country?". The purpose of this kind of argumentation is to break coalitions and for this kind of action, the single parts of the coalition would give the benefits like free trade contracts if they slip off the front. Fear is one of the best weapons in the word. And if another side would be doomed to lose, that would give change to grow the own position in the international area.

Writing about the secure computer solutions


(picture 1)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Trojan horse can also be secured computer solution because the system might transfer the information to the third part´s databases, and nobody else cannot see the information what this kind of computer program will send to the hackers. This kind of intelligence software can be used by the NSA for monitoring the targetted military bases.


That software can pass the vulnerability test, and they can be very secure things, but they will send the information to the NSA servers, without nobody ever notices anything. When I'm writing about NSA, it can mean any kind of military organization, what has in the interests to collect the information from some special secured databases, and then target the other military actions against those targets. The targets for those operations might be the personnel, who are in the key role in the national security.


This kind of thing might be the operating system size surveillance program, what might have also the capacities to destroy the weapon systems databases, or even terminate all operating systems in the missile control computers. So this kind of thing could be the logical bomb, what is very good support weapon for another military equipment. If the operating systems of the missiles and airplane computers can be erased, the enemy could not use their most effective weapon systems like smart bombs and sharp Stand-off missiles, because if the operating system of the computers of the missiles has been erased, there would be no change to aim those things.


Also if the GPS/GLONASS and communication satellites would be terminated by using the computer viruses for those satellites, and that kind of viruses can make the satellite unable to work for a couple of hours, until the computer programs were reloaded to satellites main computer. The time when the computer viruses are effective in those systems might be the only couple of minutes, but when the mission-critical system will be halted in a couple of minutes, would the result be devastating, if the nuclear submarines won't get the launching codes if enemy missile raid would already begin.


Then we are talking about this kind of military systems, what can shut down enemy communication systems or even the tactical fire control in the minutes. We must think that the NSA or whatever intelligence or military organization is behind this kind of operation, would that organization think, that it is only part, what will get that information and ability to use those programs and malware in their own purposes. That kind of programs can steal the information of the nuclear staff of the military forces, and then the special forces can be targeted the assassination operations against that personnel, what is in the main role of the launching process.

What kind of picture of the hacking is given in the public media?

Does normal hackers this kind of equipment?

Kimmo Huosionmaa

In the beginning of the text is a picture, what I used before. I must ask is it the picture of the real world of hackers? Of course, it is published in some newspapers, but does real hacker this kind of systems? The picture is really taken from the Internet, and it was mentioned originally for the art of the story. In my opinion, if some hackers have this kind of resources, they must have very much financial support.


Most of that kind of persons are not dangerous, but if the hackers are working with international criminals, could those people want that this computer genius will be silent forever, and that's why they might kill this kind of people, what those gangsters think that they are weak rings in their organization. If the criminals are the part of the mafia, they might be very dangerous, and if they think that somebody is useless, they might kick that person off the system, and they can't leave evidence of their actions. The gangsters can play the people like Greenpeace and claim that they are looking for the evidence of corruption etc. , and they might hire hackers to make computer brakings inside the police computers to find the covered agents from their organization, and if the hacker will know too much about their work, those criminals might want to silent this person, because they don't want any witnesses to this kind of crimes like drug trafficking and murders.


When we are looking for the photos, what will jump to our screen, when we are searching the Internet using the word “hacker”,  must we ask ourselves one special question. “Is the hacker this kind of person in real life”? The equipment in those pictures are fantastic, and the working spaces are awesome, but in those photographs are given the picture, that those hackers have very much financial support for their operations. In the real life, most of those people only dream about this kind of equipment and working areas. The problem of the hacking tools is that all the equipment, what is fully downloaded from the net must be registered. In this text, I will analyze the hacking to set myself to hackers position.


If I want to be phantom of the Internet, I would not use the software, what can link straight to my telephone or bank account, and that’s why I can’t use the software like Kali-Linux in my illegal operations. Of course if I were the spectacular programmer and I have lots of time, I could make the hacking software myself, but the programming skills must be very good, and of course, I should have enough time to make that software. In the real world making the hacking tool is not so easy, that the code is properly done in the one hour, and in the real world making the programs is not the synonym for the word “coding”. Making the code is, of course, the big function ft r the programmers, but also testing is the important part of the process. When we are talking about the making the program, we must make one thing clear.


When somebody wants to make the program, that person must not even know how to make codes.  That person must only get the list of the codes, and then connect that code to freeware code editor like “DEV-C++” and then just compile that program, what might be delivered with the World documents. When the mission of the hacking is purely illegal,  that hacker must hide identity very careful. If we are talking about official so-called “white hat” hackers, they can use the official software, what is properly tested. But how the criminal hacker does the test of the programs, and the programming editors sometimes codes the operating systems user information in those programs, what is made by that editor.


This is the thing, what is made to guarantee the programmer’s rights of that product, and that thing can be used for tracking the hackers. Normally the hackers don’t have millions in their bank accounts, and they don’t have very cool places, where the can make their operations. Of course, there is somewhere international gangs, what are lead by military intelligence, but normally hackers can only dream about this kind of offices, what are seen in the picture above this text.  Normal hackers operate in their homes, or they will use some other open networks. Those networks are found from the library or some kind of public places, but the problems are the limits of the batteries. And that's why that kind of connection is unstable, and when the hacker stands on the streets this person might be in danger to be targeted by robberies or some person might stand behind this hacker and see what's going on in this person's computer screen. That's why the hacker needs the secure place where to work without risks. And this is why those persons will normally do their missions at home.

Why would somebody track some persons all the time?

Kimmo Huosionmaa

If I were some kind of Luke Skywalker, I will ask myself why I wouldn’t know any normal person in the Universe? Does someone track me by some electronic component, because they always can put the best imperial pilot against me? The fictional character of fictional “Jedi Cult” is one very good example the paranoid situation, where somebody might know any time where some person would be. Those fictional  “Jedi-knights” in the Star Wars movie could recognize if another Jedi is hanging somewhere near this fighter. In some situations, some human feels that they will be followed during the day, and somebody will be observing the ḿ all the time.


This syndrome is called the “Jedi-” or  “Skywalker-syndrome”. The reason why I’m writing this text is that I saw one trailer on the YouTube, where “UFO:s”, will haunt one family. In the movie would be all particles, what can make the really good horror movie. Why I’m using the fictional films as for example, what this kind of technically caused phenomenon might look like.


But when we are talking about this kind of cases, where somebody might call the family, and say that he will follow them, we must say that in theory there would be the reason for feel uncomfortable or scary in those situations. If the person calls to the house, and observation is targeted to the house, might the reason for the calls be very simple? Somebody might want to scare the owners of the house away, and that would be the reason for those phone calls or letters. That particular person might also poison the drinking water by putting amphetamine or heroin pills to the drinking water.


That is simpler than you might guess. In the drinking water tube will just need to put the bag, where will be put those drugs, and after that the control of those persons bodies will be little difficult, and if the person has the “Wind cannon” will the birds fall from the skies. The “wind cannon” is actually a tube, where is the very high inflammable hydrocarbon or some other explosive. When this tube is turned right position, the pressure wave will drop the birds from the skies, and for the UFO is needed the dia projector, fog and the picture of the UFO, what is made in the slide-form.
Avrocar diagram


Or if that person wants to put little money into his action, he or she might buy the “document cannon”, what can be connected to the computer. And then the joker must only wait for the fog, what allows to make very good conditions for this kind of trick. This kind of “jokes” can be done with the equipment can be bought from the supermarket. But is somebody will follow some person all the time and actually shows that someway, must the target think that somewhere in this victim’s body or clothes. In some cases might be possible, that mobile telephones GPS-system have been hacked. In this kind of cases might the follower find the person by using the telephones location information.


Or they might implant that person surgically with GPS-system. That might allow those persons to follow their target by day or the night, but the question is, why somebody does that. Is that person some kind of extraordinary intelligent genetic manipulated, or why those implants would put in the target person’s body.


The mobile telephone is very good equipment for the following device. If the target uses the heart rate monitor, the follower will be sure that the target person has this equipment in the pocket all the time. And if we will turn those UFO-channel on, we might think that those birds will drop from the sky with the pressure of VTOL-airplane motors. If that vertical takeoff and landing system might be-be saucer shape, and uses the radially symmetrical installed jet-motors, and one motor what gives the vertical thrust, might drop the birds from the skies. And if we are talking about electronic alarm devices, they might be malfunctioned with high power EMP-pulse. That would explain, why the alarm-systems would not working, in the hypothetical case on intruding the house by the aliens or special forces troops.

Why are computer programs so complicated?



Kimmo Huosionmaa

The complication about computer programs is a huge problem, when we are creating the software, what easy to use. If the program is easy for end user, the programmers must make very complicated code, and those systems must be bases the far taken artificial intelligence, what will allow the end user to control those systems with easy interfaces, what have only one button, if we are talking about ideal interface for full automatized systems. The interface is very easy, only one button what will start and stop the operation. But if that interface will be real, must that system be very independent, for complete the operation successfully.


That is the primary problem with integrated computing systems, where computers control some robots or other physical systems like ABS brakes of the automobiles. If that system fails the result might be devastating if the other side wheels will lock and another side continues rolling. That is the worst case scenario, what could happen on the road. But when automobile motor electronic circuits will fail, the result might be even more terrible, what we ever thought. If the hackers infect some automobile electronic control systems with the computer virus, they might cause the situation, where the car will not obey gas or brake pedals.


Also “steam hackers” can cause horrible situations, if they put the winch in the car. That remote-controlled system might cause the even bigger danger that hackers ever can imagine. That winch would work the same way as the remote-controlled bomb, and it will just pull the gas pedal down, and you might guess, what will happen if this will happen in the wrong place. The problem with security of the automobiles or other integrated systems is, that they are too focused on data security. Those very complicated systems are also under threat of physical damages and attacks.


But the most influential threat comes from those systems own security equipment. If somebody reprograms the chip of the automobiles electronic key, the hacker can infect the computer system of that vehicle. Some hackers have spoken the opportunity and the threat, where somebody reprograms the chip of the bankcard and infects the all banking system of the Europe. But if some hacker will infect the transponder of some aircraft with computer virus program, will be able to cause very many damages to the airfield security.


The most modern military aircraft like F-36 can transmit the computer viruses to the target systems, what can cause the situation, where enemies command systems will be the collapse in the critical time. Also, the warships radars have that capacity. The computer viruses are only the integrated ECM-systems, what will transmit the computer viruses inside their jamming signals. And of course, those military machines have their physical weapons like missiles and bombs for attack missions. So the computer viruses are only the part of the support systems, what makes those machines attack harder to their targets, what is not protected with proper firewalls and antivirus software.

Threats of the artificial intelligence and autonomic robot systems

Image from movie "Terminator"


Kimmo Huosionmaa

The next race with developing weapon systems is about the artificial intelligence and integrating it with weapon systems. Somebody says that will save lives of the soldiers, but that will cause the great threat to all of the people of the world. If some dictator will able to get robot army in the command, might that person only need to give them orders and those robots will do anything that that person orders?


The reason why robots are the interesting  thing for the army commanders is that those machines can kill people without moral and ethical aspect. But when are talking about using of artificial intelligence in.military purpose, we must realize that the greatest weakness of those programs and machines is that they can't do anything that is not predicted.


They can’t generate their own ideas, and those programs are not able to use imagination for their actions. They can’t generate anything new, and that is the greatest weakness about those programs. They don’t have any visions or any imagination what to do if something goes wrong. The problem with the artificial intelligence is that it can pollute with the computer virus, what destroys it code, and those killer robots can be stopped by using EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) against it.


Also, nano-machine swarms can be stopped by simple way, those machines communication can be denied with electronic countermeasures, what denies those nano helicopters digital communication. Those countermeasure signals are able to give by any radio in the world. When we are talking about killer robots, they are of course great support equipment, but those machines still need operators that they can accomplish their missions.


What makes those killer robots so dangerous for humans is that some “security company” can operate with them, and making genocides around the world. Those robots might equip with self-destruction explosives, that nobody ever gets to know, what has been happening in some jungle. Also, undemocratic governments are interesting about those machines, because they can be operated by the president's office. That is why some countries have been put resources to train computer science and mathematics.


Robots are very trusty things, but if somebody hacks those systems and takes some attack droid under the command, the results might be catastrophic.In one scenario some operators equip Predator UCAV (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles) or killer-drones with back gates, and they will take some of those robots under their command.


Here we are talking about one Predator, what can be marked as a destroyed thing, and after that those hackers can use that drone for their own purposes. In this scenario, the team, that wants to steal that machine will put the trojan horse to that “Predators” central computer, and after that, the computer virus can open the system for hackers.  And results can be devastating if those drones will go to unauthorized use.

Every encryption have vulnerabilities and now WPA2 (WiFi Protecting Access 2) algorithm has vulnerabilities




Kimmo Huosionmaa

Again hackers have made a good job and broke secrecy of the WPA2 (WiFi Protecting Access 2) algorithm. What made this good work, is that they published that data so all Internet community can begin to create new kind of secrecy, or prepare themselves that their private data can be stolen from their secured WEB-drives.  That action shows that we must keep going with creating new methods of encrypting data and keep our privacy so strong, that nobody sees our private data what is sent over the net. But as you might know, real-life hacking is more difficult than something that happens in media. Almost every kind of encryption has weakened, and one thing what creates much more vulnerabilities is human. If a person uses too difficult passwords he or she might need to write it down or in worst case use a text file, where that person copy-pastes those marks to password line.


And what makes that thing vulnerable for the system, is that somebody might take the only photograph from the screen, when that person opens his or her text file. And the question is did he or she remember to shut down the big screen if that person is giving training lessons to some audience. In that case, could the hacker get password very easily, only thing what that person need is taken photograph in the right moment, and after that hacker could slip in the system. Worst hacker-style is social hacking. The simplest way is just to find a boss of that target company and pump that person full of sodium-Amytal when those attackers are only asked for the password from that man or woman.


In that method hackers just get one director's phone in their hands, and simply ask people passwords from the telephone, and if people won't warned about that kind of hacking, could hackers steal very much information from their target system. Sometimes users of the system ask micro support to install some programs on their workstations, and that could cause terrible situation if a hacker is a member of the micro support team. That could cause information leak where hacker simply copies hard disks information to their USB-memories, and that could be very harmful to business secrets.


In those scenarios, hackers slip a man inside the system. There they can steal information for years if somebody wouldn't see what that person does. But when we are talking about cracking algorithms with the mathematical method, we must remember that modern computers speed and power have been grown from days when that WPA2 algorithm have been created. That makes that security vulnerable for modern computers when they use "brute force" attack against the system.
