[ISN] The Drug Cartels’ IT Guy

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/radio-silence By Brian Anderson motherboard.vice.com March 3, 2015 It could have been any other morning. Felipe del Jesús Peréz García got dressed, said goodbye to his wife and kids, and drove off to work. It would be a two hour commute from their home in Monterrey, in Northeastern Mexico’s Nuevo León state, to Reynosa, in neighboring Tamaulipas state, where Felipe, an architect, would scout possible installation sites for cell phone towers for a telecommunications company before returning that evening. That was the last time anyone saw him. Felipe’s wife, Tanya, is haunted by his disappearance. “All this time I’ve spent searching for his whereabouts,” she told me. Felipe was 26, with clear hazel eyes and a wide mouth, when he disappeared on March 19, 2013, just under two years ago. It’s a story, or lack thereof, that’s common across Mexico. People vanish, and the vast majority of cases aren’t solved for years, if they’re ever closed at all. Tanya is just one of the bereaved in an expanding web of loved ones and friends left with more questions than answers, and a collective resolve to seek justice for los desaparecidos. They’re waiting for the phone to ring. Only this story is, perhaps, not just another kidnapping. What happened to Feli​pe Peréz? One theory suggests he was abducted by a sophisticated organized crime syndicate, and then forced into a hacker brigade that builds and services the cartel’s hidden, backcountry communications infrastructure. They’re the Geek Squads to some of the biggest mafia-style organizations in the world. That’s how Tanya sees it, at least. She looks at the rash of kidnapping cases across Mexico, many of which have taken place in Tamaulipas, targeted specifically at architects, engineers, and other information technology types, and can’t help but think Felipe was one of them. Nearly 40 information technology specialists have disappeared in Mexico s​ince 2008, allegedly nabbed by one of the two dominant gangs in the region, the Cartel del Golfo or Los Zetas. […]

[ISN] This Article Was Written With the Help of a ‘Cyber’ Machine

http://www.wsj.com/articles/is-the-prefix-cyber-overused-1425427767 By DANNY YADRON and JENNIFER VALENTINO-DEVRIES The Wall Street Journal March 4, 2015 These days, CyberPatriots go to CyberCamps. Washington wonks ponder a Cyber Red Cross. Last week, the Director of National Intelligence told Congress a “cyber Armageddon” is unlikely. This week, CBS Corp. will premiere the latest iteration of its long-running cops and crime franchise, “CSI: Cyber,” whose protagonist describes herself as cybercop and is based, the network says, on a real-life cyberpsychologist. For some, it is cyber-overload. Stop using the word,” Alex Stamos, the chief information security officer at Yahoo Inc. told a “Cybersecurity for a New America” conference in Washington last week. Earlier, Mr. Stamos quipped on Twitter that he had won “CyberBingo” at his table after a conference speaker warned of a “Cyber Pearl Harbor,” a term popularized by former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta in 2012. Mr. Stamos isn’t brushing off computer intrusions in his quest to hack away at “cyber” usage. As the guy in charge of keeping prying eyes out of one of the world’s most popular websites, you could say he is obsessed with them. […]

[ISN] Australian politicians are reportedly using top-secret messaging app Wickr

http://mashable.com/2015/03/01/australia-politicians-wickr/ By Jenni Ryall mashable.com March 1, 2015 Australian politicians are reportedly using the secret messenging app Wickr to communicate with each other on the sly. According to The Australian, Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Minister for Social Services Scott ­Morrison have been using the service to communicate about their dissatisfaction with Prime Minister Tony Abbott and the ongoing leadership crisis. It follows months of speculation regarding instability within the Liberal-National Coalition Government, which culminated in a vote on whether to declare Abbott’s position vacant. That motion was defeated, but it has not quelled the rumours that members of his government are secretly pushing for a change of leadership. Wickr has a secure file-shredding feature that destroys all communication on your device and claims it has “military-grade encryption.” On the app’s website, the company claims that no conversations can be tracked or monitored using the app, which may mean that The Australian received a tip regarding the top-secret communications between the two politicians. […]
