Popular Post snoop1130 Posted September 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2021 BANGKOK (NNT) - The police cyber crime unit has located the group of hackers behind a recent hospital data breech, based in the United States, where more government agencies and private firms have been identified as victims. The police are now coordinating with international agencies in pursuit of the arrest. The Royal Thai Police Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) today announced the update to their investigation of a data breech by hackers of a hospital, an incident in a series of cyberattacks in Thailand reported in recent days. The CCIB Commissioner Pol Lt Gen Kornchai Klaiklueng, said the group of hackers behind the attack was found to be located in the United States, following investigations that showed traces of the attack linked to India and a server in Singapore earlier. The police are now coordinating with US agencies and other international agencies to help with the investigation. The CCIB chief said other agencies and private firms, including CP Freshmart and several other hospitals, are now known to have been attacked by the same group. He said the CCIB is ready to assist with these cases if asked. He said the CCIB will continue pursuing the case in order to arrest the persons responsible, while the unit will keep on focusing on the suppression of cyberattacks along with illegal online trades. Since the CCIB’s conception last year, the bureau has already captured suspects in 2,472 cases of the illegal trading of goods on online platforms. The CCIB is also working to introduce an online case filing system, allowing victims of online abuse to report their cases from home or at a local police station, without visiting the CCIB in person. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-09-09 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted September 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2021 Are they sure it did not originate from China and was bounced through servers and such around the world?, just making sure. I talked with a friend who works in cyber in the US and he indicated there is a lot of international crime, scams, and computer fraud emanating from China right now as well as the Ukraine. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mbenson Posted September 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2021 The question would be why? What is in it for the hackers? How will they benefit from having personal information for a bunch of Thai people? Are they going to sell it to the highest bidder? Who wants it? I think they are flattering themselves again. Thailand is so important that the US is out to undermine it. It is part of the same narrative. Who benefits from this narrative? China and the recipients of its "largesse." 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I read the headline with interest right up to the last word - 'police'. If they can't collect over 90% of traffic fines what credibility have they in tracing hackers? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkk Brian Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 First it was Indians with a server based in Singapore, now the US. They actually have no clue where this hack originated, VPN servers hide all tracks and with Thailand's lax approach to cyber security their detecting skills are suspect. Hacking gangs are often detected via known malicious code that is a common feature within certain hacking groups that leave imprints to their origins.

GreasyFingers Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Good to see the China phobes out in force. Hackers only reside in Russia or China, no one in the USA would do such a thing. Where is the mis-information ministry when needed to stop these viscous lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VPN's might give some protection, but very limited. I remember a few years ago the USA desperately needed to track someone behind the HMA VPN.......it took them a day to find him.

You assume that the same people who do the tracking are those that make apps. I mean the average standard might be low but that does not mean they don't have good people. Probably not much but there is talent everywhere just less in this area for Thailand. But if they still get those talents then its possible. But I think a lot of the reasons why Thai apps are so insecure with data is that the data protection act is not ratified. So companies don't get in trouble when they lose data. So they keep their IT budgets low as the fallout costs less then good protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
