Taiwan & Asia’s Premiere Hacking CON – HITCON 2013 – MicroSolved’s own Red Dragon Rising Keynotes

Posted on by
1

Good morning from Taiwan & Asia’s Premiere Hacking CON – HITCON 2013 –
MicroSolved’s own Red Dragon Rising Keynotes on the comparative cyber convict doctrine of the People’s Republic of China, Russia and Iran!
If you are in Taipei please stop by and say ‘hello’!

Today’s cyber threat situational awareness (SA) includes quite a few items about the People’s Republic of China’s Huawei and the companies efforts to support the Communist Regimes efforts to colonize the world via Operation Middle Kingdom (OP Middle Kingdom). You’ll note that the Brit’s are getting wise to Huawei’s investment initiatives as a possible threat to Her Royal Majesty’s National Security. On a similar track is Saudi Arabia’s investment in Huawei…and thus the high tech colonization of the Middle East has begun. India has already been colonized by Huawei as you’ll read about the significant volume of high tech patents Huawei has purchased in the former British colony.

Please enjoy these cyber threat SA items – more to come I’m certain from HITCON 2013 in 台北, 中華民國 ~ Taiepi, Republic of China.

Red Dragon Rising in the Republic of China (ROC)…Taiwan for HITCON 2013

Posted on by
Reply

Good morning from Taipei, Republic of China – (ROC) Taiwan –

MicroSolved will be presenting at HITCON 2013 here in Taipei this week, among visits to other ‘agencies’…if you are here in Asia and can attend HITCON 2013 this week – please do and drop by to say ‘hello’ as Red Dragon Rising presents entirely in Mandarin Chinese…

Of particular note for today’s Asian Cyber Threat Intelligence SA are stories about the US targeting Chinese Cyber spies…interesting mention in the WSJ about offensive uses of cyber weapons directed at the People’s Republic of China…is the US prepared for the 2nd & 3rd order effects of this type of cyber targeting?

US & People’s Republic of China FINALLY Make Cyber Security a Strategic Issue…

Posted on by

Good Day Folks;

US & People’s Republic of China FINALLY Make Cyber Security a Strategic Issue…FBI are you paying attention?
Many differing reporting styles from around the World regarding the US & the People’s Republic of China discussing cyber security as a strategic national/international matter…NOT one for Law Enforcement…Only now all the Chinese pay attention the US regarding the loosely attributable claims of hacking by the “Chinese” against the US…I wonder why it took so long for the “China Experts” in DC to figure this one out…!?

Enjoy the news folks – and note to the FBI – the People’s Republic of China perhaps isn’t the boogeyman we want them to be…interesting…no!?
