It looks like Red October is a snatch bashful . After the big reveal , Red October ’s substructure lead off hold out offline . Domain name link with the task have set out to vanish , as well as hosting for program line and control servers . It ’s like the whole project is packing up and going home now that the secret ’ is out .
While that could be the sheath , to a sure extent , Red October is known for being lively and have layers upon layers of proxy defense . The “ mothership ” has not been located , so there ’s still a juicy substance of slip intel somewhere out there . The recantation of latterly discovered feelers only form sensation as a move to protect it . The question is : has Red October been spoil by being found out , or is it just pluck into hibernation until everyone block about it , only to come back with young tools and now proxies ? My money is on the latter . [ ThreatpostviaArs Technica ]
