So The NYT is reporting that a security firm has discovered that the GRU has hacked into Burisma, looking for "dirt" on the Bidens.
"The Times' report also cited a US security official as saying Russian hacking attempts against Burisma "appear to be running parallel" to efforts by Russian spies in Ukraine to obtain dirt that would embarrass the Bidens. Specifically, they're searching for emails, financial documents, and legal records.
Area 1, the cybersecurity firm that discovered the attacks, found in a report
that Russia's hacking technique with respect to Burisma bore some significant parallels to when it hacked into the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 election and stole thousands of emails that were damaging to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign."
A major similarity to 2016 is the element of phishing- a GRU trademark...
"Area 1's report said the Russian hackers who attacked Burisma employed a tactic known as spearphishing to obtain sensitive information like usernames and passwords.
They then reportedly created dummy websites that looked like the login pages for Burisma subsidiaries and have since been pelting Burisma's employees with emails that look like they're coming from within the company.
Oren Falkowitz, a co-founder of Area 1 and a former National Security Agency employee, told The Times the attacks this time around were successful and look like "a repeat of Russian interference in the last election."
The company's report said it "has also further connected this GRU phishing campaign to another phishing campaign targeting a media organization founded by Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky." The GRU is the military intelligence arm of the Russian government."
