The critical and financial success of Ricochet prompted us to focus more attention on the Internet space as the best way to reach a large audience of gamers. With the release of the award-winning Ricochet in 2001, we at Reflexive sought to simply explore the Internet gaming marketplace. We are proud of what we have accomplished to date, and we are excited about the projects we have in development. We have dedicated ourselves to this for the past 8 years and we feel we've made great progress.

Philippine Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana told Bloomberg he didn’t know of any recent cyberattacks on the country’s navy, and would task intelligence officials to look into the matter. Vietnam’s Foreign Affairs spokeswoman Le Thi Thu Hang didn’t address the report’s specifics, but said in an online briefing Thursday that the government “always pays close attention to this and has issued various guidelines, policies and measures to ensure cybersecurity and information safety.” She added that the country “stands ready to cooperate with the international community on this matter.” Those actors, it said, included “many PLA Strategic Support Force and Ministry of State Security (MSS)-linked threat activity groups.” “The scale and scope of China’s cyber espionage program remains unrivaled, exemplified by the large number of distinct actors with operational taskings within specific geographic regions,” Insikt group wrote. The cybersecurity group said the Cambodian foreign ministry along with the country’s only international and commercial deep sea port, Sihanoukville Autonomous Port, were targeted in September. Laos this month inaugurated a nearly $6 billion Chinese-built railway linking the country with southern China. In May, Insikt said it identified suspected Chinese state-sponsored network intrusion activity targeting “telecommunications, government and state-owned organizations with Laos.” Both the Lao National Committee for Special Economic Zones and the National Enterprise Database were identified as targets, it said. “We oppose the spread of disinformation for political purposes to mislead the international community and sow discord between regional countries,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said Thursday at a regular press briefing in Beijing.Ĭhina has previously dismissed reporting by Recorded Future, including findings in September this year that Chinese state-sponsored hackers were believed to have infiltrated and likely stolen data from an Indian government agency responsible for a national identification base. Insikt said it notified all the countries involved in October. “We also identified evidence suggesting that TAG-16 shares custom capabilities with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA)-linked activity group RedFoxtrot,” it said. The group attributed much of the activity to a Chinese state-sponsored entity it has labeled Threat Activity Group 16. Insikt said it identified over 400 unique servers in Southeast Asia communicating with infected networks that were likely linked to Chinese state-sponsored actors, adding that it didn’t have any insight into the specific data that might have been obtained. The hackers focused on the offices of the Thai and Malaysian prime ministers, the foreign affairs ministries of Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as their militaries, it said. “The identified intrusion campaigns almost certainly support key strategic aims of the Chinese government, such as gathering intelligence on countries engaged in South China Sea territorial disputes or related to projects and countries strategically important to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI),” Insikt Group said in its report. The hackers also took aim at several other countries, including the Philippines, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand, it said. Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam were the top three targeted countries over the past nine months, said the Insikt Group, the threat research arm of Massachusetts-based Recorded Future. (Bloomberg) - Chinese hackers this year targeted military and civilian organizations in several Southeast Asian nations, particularly those with similar territorial claims or strategic infrastructure projects, suggesting the involvement of the state, a U.S.-based cybersecurity firm said in new research released late Wednesday.
