"They rebuilt their arsenal," says researcher Matthieu Faou. "They never stopped their espionage activity."

Name A Hacker Camp | Hackaday
Many of us look forward to visiting a summer hacker camp, as an opportunity to immerse ourselves in some of the coolest and most stimulating stuff that comes out of our community! We asked a hacker to try and steal a CNN tech reporter's ...www.stltoday.com /business/ ...-cnn/article_f62...We asked a hacker to try and steal a CNN tech reporter's data. Here's what happened Story by Donie O'Sullivan, CNN Business Video by Samantha Guff, John General, and Richa Naik!! The names trip off the tongue, ToorCamp, CCCamp, EMFcamp, BornHack, and more.
There’s one major event that doesn’t trip off the tongue in the same way though, because though it’s one of the oldest in our calendar it doesn’t have the same name every time. Since the end of the 1980s the Netherlands has seen a sequence of hacker camps with three letter names such as HAR, OHM, and SHA. Every four years these events delight and amaze us, and every four years they need a new name. Do you think you can help them pick one for 2021 ?
There are a few ground rules to observe, for the would-be coiner of a new moniker. The tradition is of a three-letter acronym, usually one with a meaning somewhere in technology, and so far always containing the letter H somewhere to stand for “Hack” in some form. The idea is that it should somehow encapsulate the spirit of hacker camp culture rather than simply be three words containing “Hack”. HAR for example was Hacking At Random, OHM was Observe Hack Make, and SHA was Still Hacking Anyway!

It will now expand the types of bugs that are eligible, and even pay out for bugs that have also been directly submitted to another developer's own bug bounty. Essentially, Facebook is willing to reward bugs that impact its platform even if a researcher has already gotten another payout elsewhere for finding it. The company is also adding bonuses from $1,000 to $15,000 if researchers find bugs in the fundamental code of its native products—like Messenger, Oculus, Portal, or WhatsApp—and then also submit additional materials, like showing how the bugs could actually be exploited in the wild. Before now, there wasn't a specifically codified bonus structure if you went above and beyond in a submission, a practice Facebook wants to encourage.

Russia's Cozy Bear Hackers Resurface With Clever New Tricks | WIRED
The researchers found that the spying campaign extend both years before the DNC hack and years after—until as recently as June of this year—and used an entirely new collection of malware tools, some of which deployed novel tricks to avoid detection. "They rebuilt their arsenal," says ESET researcher Matthieu Faou, who presented the new findings earlier this week at ESET's research conference in Bratislava, Slovakia. "They never stopped their espionage activity."
In fact, one of the intrusions that included MiniDuke began in 2013, before the malware had been publicly identified—a strong indicator that the Dukes perpetrated the breach rather than someone else who picked up the malware from another source.
The Dukes' RegDuke implant uses a different obfuscation trick, planting a fileless back door in a target computer's memory. That back door then communicates to a Dropbox account used as its command-and-control, hiding its messages using a steganography technique that invisibly alters pixels in images like the ones shown below to embed secret information.
