“…according to Air-Sea Battle, U.S. forces would launch physical attacks and cyberattacks against the enemy’s “kill-chain” of sensors and weaponry in order to disrupt its command-and-control systems, wreck its launch platforms (including aircraft, ships, and missile sites), and finally defeat the weapons they actually fire. The sooner the kill-chain is broken, the less damage U.S. forces will suffer — and the more damage they will be able to inflict on the enemy.”

US Concocting People’s War to Hype China Cyber Fears – FreeBeacon is Wrong…People’s Republic of China Rebuttal….

http://world.huanqiu.com/exclusive/2013-08/4195091.html

U.S. media reports the magazine when the internal network fabricated Chinese people’s war planning

RedDragon’s Insight…there have been very few if any ‘cyber’ madness stories pointing the finger at the People’s Republic of China (中華人民共和國) since the traitorous Snowden left for Hong Kong and ended up in Russia working for the Soviet version of Facebook…This latest amplification by Gertz’ ‘Washington Free Bacon sorry Beacon…is yet another attempt by the unknowing and ignorant to cause controversy where there isn’t any…maybe the Free Bacon needs press, I expect the China hyperbole is the ticket..

Nonetheless, below is a story from within the People’s Republic of China indicating that Free Bacon is both incorrect (I wonder if Mr. Gertz speaks or understands Chinese or he is simply manufacturing a new enemy for the DIB?) and full of mis and dis- information…

　　Original title: U.S. media reports the magazine when the internal planning cyber war concocted China

　　LONDON August 1 message: “Chinese military theorists are the tactics of Mao’s peasant uprising to the United States for the next war,” U.S. “Washington Freedom Beacon” July 30 come to the surprising conclusion, is trying to set off another one pair of “Chinese cyber warfare,” the siege. However, the “Global Times” reporter found that the report mentioned in the article is not what the “internal defense report,” U.S. media’s most in-depth study of the U.S. cyber warfare theory originated from China just for grafted to the sensational.

　　”Washington Freedom Beacon” July 30 reported that China an internal defense report noted that China’s military is preparing for the cyber warfare, including the launch of the satellite from space attacks and the use of military and civil personnel initiating digital ” people’s war. ” The newspaper said the report, “Space Network warfare research,” the report by the Shanghai Research Center of a home defense drafted four engineers, including disclosure of Chinese cyber warfare and space warfare plans for further details, “This report makes the outside world a rare Beijing to peep into the most secret military projects: Future plans cyber warfare against the United States. ” The report concludes that, in the past, nuclear war strategy is based, but in the information age, with a strategic war should be cyber warfare. “Due to rely on information warfare in space, cyberspace will become a fight for control of the network hotspots.”

　　”China’s cyber warfare capabilities and anti-satellite missiles and interference projects, the PLA hide the deepest secrets. Held earlier this month in China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue, the topic of cyber warfare by the U.S. and Chinese military defense officials instituted.” ” Washington Freedom Beacon “In reaching this conclusion, but re-claimed the newspaper received a copy of a translation of the report, marked above dates are December 2012, published in the” Aerospace Electronic Warfare “journal . The journal is the China Aerospace Science and Industry Group 8511 Nanjing Institute publications.

　　”Washington Freedom Beacon” really got China’s internal defense report yet? “Global Times” reporter July 31 telephone interview, “Aerospace Electronic Warfare” magazine. The magazine one person familiar with the situation told reporters, “Aerospace Electronic Warfare” is a publicly issued bimonthly, anyone want to see you can get this magazine, which is a little secret the contents of the article are not, let alone is the “internal defense report.” Specific to the thing I read entitled “Space Cyber ​​warfare research,” the article, by the Shanghai Institute of Satellite Engineering of Huanghan Wen and other four people to write, mainly for the Chinese readers “Space cyberwar” no unified concept, the lack of clear understanding of the U.S. space-related cyber warfare concepts, definitions introduced to China, is not what the Chinese military theorists in the study of people’s war in cyberspace.

　　”Global Times” reporter easily downloaded from the Internet this article. In the reporter seems more like a science article describes, beginning on several U.S. cites the definition of cyber warfare. Which describes the characteristics of cyber war, said: “Cyber ​​warfare is not limited to military personnel to participate, with the information systems expertise and skilled personnel, can be implemented cyber warfare, cyber warfare can be said to be a people’s war.”

　　China National Innovation Strategy Research and Development Center for Strategic Studies cyberspace Renqin An 31, 2011, the “Global Times” said that the people’s war and cyber warfare irrelevant, network warfare is “elite war”, how could become the “People’s war “?

美媒把杂志当内部报告 编造中国筹划网络人民战争

【环球时报综合报道】“中国军方理论学者正在将毛泽东的农民起义战术用于未来对美战争”，美国《华盛顿自由灯塔报》7月30日得出的惊人结论，正试图掀起另一轮对“中国网络战”的围攻。然而，《环球时报》记者调查发现，文章中提到的报告根本不是什么“内部防务报告”，美国媒体把美国研究最深入的网络战理论嫁接到源于中国只是为了耸人听闻。

　　《华盛顿自由灯塔报》7月30日报道称，中国一份内部防务报告指出，中国军方正在为网络战争做准备，其中包括从太空对卫星发起袭击，并利用军事和民间人员发起数字化的“人民战争”。该报称，这份名为“空间网络战研究”的报告由上海某家国防研究中心的4名工程师起草，其中披露了中国网络战和太空战计划的详细细节，“这份报告使得外界罕见地窥视到北京最为秘密的军事项目：未来针对美国的网络战计划”。这份报告认为，过去，战略战争是以核武器为基础，但在信息时代，具有战略意义的战争应该是网络战。“由于信息战要依赖于太空，网络空间将成为争夺网络控制权的热点。”

　　“中国的网络战能力与反卫星导弹和干扰项目一样，是解放军隐藏最深的秘密。在本月初召开的中美战略与经济对话中，网络战的话题被美国和中国军事防务官员提起。”《华盛顿自由灯塔报》在得出这一结论时，却又转口声称，该报获得了这份报告的翻译件复印件，上面标注的日期是2012年12月，发表在《航天电子对抗》期刊上。这份期刊是中国航天科工集团南京8511研究所的出版物。

　　《华盛顿自由灯塔报》真的搞到中国的内部防务报告了吗？《环球时报》记者7月31日电话采访了《航天电子对抗》杂志。该杂志一名熟悉情况的人士告诉记者，《航天电子对抗》是一份对外公开发行的双月刊，任何人只要想看就可以得到这份杂志，里面的文章一点涉密内容都没有，更不可能是“内部防务报告”。具体到那篇题为“空间赛博战研究”的文章，是由上海卫星工程研究所的黄汉文等4人写的，主要针对的是中国读者对“空间网络战”没有统一的概念，缺乏明确的认识，把美国有关空间网络战的概念、定义介绍给中国，根本不是什么中国军方理论家在研究网络空间的人民战争。

　　《环球时报》记者轻易地从网上下载了这篇文章。在记者看来，文章更像是一篇科普介绍，开头就引用了几个美国对赛博战的定义。其中介绍赛博战特点时说：“赛博战并不限于军人参加，具备信息系统专门知识和技能的人员，都可以实施赛博战，可 以说赛博战是一种人民战争 。”

　　中国国家创新与发展战略研究会网络空间战略研究中心主任秦安31日对《环球时报》说，人民战争与网络战风马牛不相及，网络战是“精英战”，怎么可能变成“人民战争”？

Good day folks;

Here’s an article about how information security researchers within the People’s Republic of China, 中華人民共和國 define ‘Unknown Cyber Threats & the innocuous Western term “APT”.

Enjoy!

Semper Fi,

謝謝您

安全威胁近些年来发生巨大的变化，黑客攻击从传统带有恶作剧与技术炫耀性质逐步转变为利益化、商业化。为了突破传统的安全防御方法，一种名为APT的攻击迅速发展起来。APT是advanced persistent threat的缩写，译为高级持续性威胁。它是指近年来,专业且有组织的黑客（甚至可能有国家背景支持），针对重要目标和系统发起的一种攻击手段。

APT的主要特征:

 持续性： 攻击者为了重要的目标长时间持续攻击直到攻破为止。攻击成功用上一年到三年，攻击成功后持续潜伏五年到十年的案例都有。这种持续性攻击下，让攻击完全处于动态发展之中，而当前我们的防护体系都是强调静态对抗能力很少有防护者有动态对抗能力，因此防护者或许能挡住一时的攻击，但随时间的发展，系统不断有新的漏洞被发现，防御体系也会存在一定的空窗期：比如设备升级、应用需要的兼容性测试环境等等，最终导致系统的失守。

终端性： 攻击者虽然针对的是重要的资产目标，但是入手点却是终端为主。再重要的目标，也是由终端的人来访问的。而人在一个大型组织里，是难以保证所有人的安全能力与安全意识都处于一个很高水准之上的。而做好每个人的终端防护比服务器端防护要困难很多。通过SQL注射攻击了WEB服务器，一般也是希望利用他攻击使用这些WEB服务器的终端用户作为跳板渗透进内网。

广谱信息收集性： 攻击者会花上很长的时间和资源，依靠互联网搜集，主动扫描，甚至真实物理访问方式，收集被攻击目标的信息，主要包括：组织架构，人际关系，常用软件，常用防御策略与产品，内部网络部署等信息。

针对性： 攻击者会针对收集到的常用软件，常用防御策略与产品，内部网络部署等信息，搭建专门的环境，用于寻找有针对性安全漏洞，测试特定的木马是否能饶过检测。

未知性： 攻击者依据找到的针对性安全漏洞，特别是0DAY，根据应用本身构造专门的触发攻击的代码。并编写符合自己攻击目标，但能饶过现有防护者检测体系的特种木马。这些0DAY漏洞和特种木马，都是防护者或防护体系所不知道的。

渗透性社工： 攻击者为了让被攻击者目标更容易信任，往往会先从被攻击者目标容易信任的对象着手，比如攻击一个被攻击者目标的电脑小白好友或家人，或者被攻击者目标使用的内部论坛，通过他们的身份再对组织内的被攻击者目标发起0DAY攻击，成功率会高很多。再利用组织内的已被攻击成功的身份再去渗透攻击他的上级，逐步拿到对核心资产有访问权限的目标。

隐蔽合法性： 攻击者访问到重要资产后，往往通过控制的客户端，分布使用合法加密的数据通道，将信息窃取出来，以饶过我们的审计和异常检测的防护。

长期潜伏与控制： 攻击者长期控制重要目标获取的利益更大。一般都会长期潜伏下来，控制和窃取重要目标。当然也不排除在关键时候破坏型爆发。

从以上特性来看，可以获得如下结论

APT攻击的成本很高（专业的团队，长期的信息收集，挖掘0DAY和利用，特马，环境测试，渗透性社工与潜伏，多种检测对抗），因此只适合专业的网络犯罪团伙或有组织和国家支持的特种攻击团队

因此APT攻击是针对有重要价值资产或重要战略意义的目标，一般军工、能源、金融、军事、政府、重要高科技企业等最容易遭受APT攻击。

虽然普通网民不会遭受APT攻击的眷顾，但是如果你是APT攻击目标组织的一名普通员工甚至只是与APT攻击目标组织的一名普通员工是好友或亲戚关系，你依然可能成为APT攻击的中间跳板，当然作为普通个人，APT攻击本身不会窃走你个人什么东西（你本身就是重要人物如组织中的高级管理人员或个人主机里保存有重要资料的除外）。

不要以为你重要的信息资产只在内网甚至物理隔离就能不遭受APT攻击，因为即使物理阻止了网络层流，也阻止不了逻辑上的信息流。RSA被APT攻击利用FLASH 0DAY偷走了在内网严密保护的SECURID令牌种子，震网利用7个0DAY和摆渡成功渗透进了伊朗核设施级的物理隔离网络。

 New threats: unknown threats and APT

Security threats change dramatically in recent years, with a mischievous hacker attacks from the traditional sports and technology gradually changed the nature of the interests and commercialization. In order to break through the traditional method of security and defense, called APT attacks developed rapidly. APT is the advanced persistent threat acronym, translated advanced persistent threats. It refers to recent years, professional and organized hackers (and may even have national context support), an important goal and system for initiating a means of attack.

APT main features:

 

Sustainability: an important target for attackers continued to attack until a long break so far. A successful attack to spend one to three years, a successful attack lurking five to ten years after the last case has. This persistent attack, the attacker completely dynamically evolving, and the current emphasis of our protection system are rarely static protective ability against those who have the dynamic ability to fight, so those who may be able to block the protective moment of attack, but with the time of development, the system constantly new vulnerabilities are discovered, there will still be some defense system window period: for example, equipment upgrades, application compatibility testing environment and so require, eventually leading to the fall of the system.

Terminal resistance: Although the attacker is an important asset for a goal, but starting point is the main terminal. Further important objective, but also by people to access the terminal. And people in a large organization, it is difficult to ensure the safety of all ability and safety awareness are at a very high level above. And do everyone’s terminal protective than the server-side protection to be much more difficult. SQL injection attacks via the WEB server, are generally hoping to use him against the use of these WEB server as a springboard to penetrate into the end-user within the network.

Broad spectrum of information collection: the attacker will take a long time and resources, relying on the Internet to collect, active scanning, and even real physical access, to collect information about the target to be attacked, including: organizational structure, interpersonal relationships, commonly used software, common defense strategy and products, internal network deployment and other information.

Targeted: The attacker will be collected from the commonly used software for commonly used defense strategy and products, internal network deployment and other information, to build a dedicated environment for finding security vulnerabilities targeted to test whether a particular Trojan bypass detection.

Unknown sex: the attacker targeted basis to find security vulnerabilities, especially 0DAY, depending on the application itself is constructed of specialized trigger an attack code. And prepared in line with their targets, but it can bypass the existing system of special protection by detecting Trojans. These 0DAY loopholes and special Trojans, are protective or protective system does not know.

Permeability social workers: the attacker to allow an attacker to target more likely to trust, they tend to start with the easy confidence by attackers target object to proceed, such as attacking a target computer to be attacked by white friends or family, or the attacker targets Using the internal forum, through their identity and then the organization launched by attackers target 0DAY attack, the success rate would be much higher. Re-use within the organization’s identity has been successful attack penetration attacks his superiors to go step by step to get to the core assets have access goals.

Covert Legitimacy: the attacker access to critical assets, often through the control of the client, using the legitimate distribution of encrypted data channel, the information to steal out to bypass our audit and anomaly detection protection.

Long-term potential and control: an attacker to obtain long-term control of the interests of more important goals. Usually long-simmering down, control and steal important goals. Of course, does not rule out sabotage outbreak at a critical time.

From the point of view the above characteristics, the following conclusions can be obtained

APT attack is costly (professional team, long-term information gathering, mining and utilization 0DAY, Tema, environmental testing, permeability and latent social workers, a variety of detection confrontation) is intended only for professional or organized cybercrime gangs and national support team special attack

Therefore APT attacks are of great value for the asset or strategically important objectives, general military, energy, finance, military, government, and other key high-tech enterprise most vulnerable to APT attacks.

While ordinary users will not suffer APT attacks attention, but if you are APT attacks target tissue or even just an ordinary employee organization with APT attack targets a general staff are friends or relatives, you are still likely to be in the middle of APT attack springboard, of course, as an ordinary person, APT attack itself will not steal your personal anything (such as your own is an important figure in the senior management of the organization or individual host inside except the preservation of important data).

Do not think you important information assets are physically isolated from the internal network can not even suffer APT attacks because even if the physical network layer prevents flow logically can stop the flow of information. RSA APT attacks use FLASH 0DAY was stolen including network closely guarded SECURID token seed, Stuxnet and ferry use 7 0DAY successful penetration into the Iranian nuclear facility-level physical isolation network.
