Russian Intelligence Agencies Cooperate with Cybercriminals #shorts

Some of this group or some of the non actors they either ideologically align with Russia but others they just cooperate with the Russian intelligence agencies uh in in exchange for protection or tacid permission to continue to uh conduct uh financially motivated um operations. They provide access infrastructures. Um and uh malicious code is also reused uh coming from uh um e-rime groups and then reused uh by uh state sponsor actors. Uh now let's see the services that uh companies actually provide to uh uh the Russian intelligence services. Um so the outsourcing activity in the case of richer Russia they um serve a more uh support oriented role. um they don't uh perform the all um uh spin uh lifespan of um cyber

operation but they provide more tooling platforms uh for vulnerability identifications um data anal collection and analysis uh they also use for recruiting so um they uh will organize CTF competition uh where they could identify profile that are interesting for the states uh to later recruit and they provide also training platforms and uh as I mentioned before uh some public relation uh companies also engage uh in information operations.
