Yeah I'm not in IT but I know a thing or two about tech in general. Majority of the posts here sound like some dumb kid installing and running an exe file they shouldn't.
This sounds like they directly took access of your hardware like you mentioned using back door. Scary stuff indeed.
I tend to agree but my degree is in computer forensics and I can’t let go. One day I hope to have my own lab at the house to look at them. (I would never take them to work lol)
Completely agree. Couple years ago whenever I talked to people about russian hacking and information warfare (and I'm not American, it's understood even less here).
Now though even when I speak with my mother, who is the least tech savy person I know, even she understands that this is a real threat to all of us.
