The Military

The I'll-be-seeing-you dept was posted by Editor David.

The Financial Times tells how the head of a Ukrainian cybersecurity company recruited dozens of "high-level Ukrainian hackers" and borrowed a Starlink internet satellite for "the large-scale infiltration of internet-connected security cameras to surveil Russian-occupied territory, and honey-trapping Russian soldiers into revealing their bases." [T]hey hacked thousands of security and traffic cameras in Belarus and parts of Ukraine that Russia had occupied. To filter the information, the team wrote machine-learning code that helped them separate military movements from ordinary traffic, and they funnelled the information to the military via a public portal.

They identified a remote Russian base in southern Ukraine in an example described to the Financial Times. Then, using fake profiles of attractive women on Facebook and Russian social media websites, they tricked soldiers into sending photos that they used to share with the Ukrainian military.

A few days later, they watched on TV as the base was blown up by Ukrainian artillery.
