Sorry for the opaque comment. Was gushing over the cool exploits of the "Inception Group" or "RedOctober APT" - believed but not proven to be Russian espionage.

I'm not sure HN is the right forum for that. Enjoy, uh, gushing.

HN is for technical conversation, which includes being impressed and commenting on the state of the art.

Seriously encourage reading about capabilities, especially the operations security maturity. The level of research and development is truly impressive.

I think if you look around, you won't see anything like it. You don't need to repeat the 'gushing'; I read the prior two comments. But anyway, have fun.
