Was the plane of von der Leyen jammed? Not quite. Data from Skai Data Services show: no plane in the region had signs of GPS jamming. The attacker must have interfered from the ground, and air traffic control requested the plane to use ILS instead of GPS procedure to land in Plovdiv.

GPS-Jamming bei von der Leyens Flug – handelte Russland gezielt gegen die EU?

In der Ostsee gibt es immer mehr GPS-Störungen, hinter denen der Kreml vermutet wird. Jetzt soll es zu einer gezielten Aktion gegen die EU-Kommissions-Präsidentin gekommen sein.

In recent months, Internet cables in the Baltic Sea have been damaged multiple times — Russian sabotage is suspected. But how does that work? Together with @cianjochem.bsky.social & @lukasmaeder.bsky.social , we visualized one case (inspired by Reuters 🤩) www.nzz.ch/ld.1875983

Europas Unterseekabel sind verwundbar, das haben die letzten Monate deutlich gezeigt. Was passiert ist, wo weitere Kabel verlaufen, wie man sie repariert, kurz: Alles zu Unterseekabel gibt es hier 👇 www.nzz.ch/pro/untersee... @jonasoesch.ch, @cianjochem.bsky.social, @lukasmaeder.bsky.social

If the US administration destroys existing initiatives and re-prioritizes the resources to new goals, this will invariably affect the global cyber security situation. @lukasmaeder.bsky.social has a thoughtful scenario what might happen in @nzz.ch. A few highlights. 1/n www.nzz.ch/pro/trump-bi...

With the World Economic Forum starting in Davos, the DDoS attacks of NoNameo57 are back in Switzerland. Some local websites cannot be accessed. The most important one seems from the railway RhB. But don't fall for the false narrative that hacktivists are attacking Switzerland. ./.

Russland könnte versuchen, die Bundestagswahl in Deutschland zu beeinflussen. Was können westliche Staaten gegen Manipulation und Desinformation tun? Verbote sind heikel. Ich habe mir überlegt, in welche Richtung die Massnahmen gehen müssten. www.nzz.ch/pro/kreml-bu...

Russland könnte deutsche Bundestagswahl beeinflussen: Wie sich Demokratien schützen können

Die Stärke von Demokratien ist es, andere Meinungen zuzulassen. Autoritäre Staaten wir Russland nutzen dies aus. Die westlichen Staaten müssen handeln.

Guter kommentar von @lukasmaeder.bsky.social in @nzz.ch zu den Desinformationskampagne gegen westlichen demokratie (S. 17). Und in Bern dummer Kommissionsentscheid sur massiven Schwächung der SRG, somit eines Pfeiler der Informationsouvränität der Schweiz. Naiver gehts nicht!

It's interesting: it seems to me that the Salt Typhoon hack targeting US telecom companies didn't get much attention in the European media. Although several EU countries probably are among the victims of this espionage campaign. For me it shows how spy trade works today www.nzz.ch/english/chin...

How Chinese spies gained access to major US telephone providers

A group of hackers with ties to the Chinese government has gained access to call data from major U.S. telecommunications providers. The sophisticated approach is almost impossible to counteract.

The US sees Chinese ship-to-shore-cranes as a threat to national security. Almost 80% of this cranes in US harbors are from China. Europe is often bedazzled and denies this concerns as protectionism. I've tried to explain why this is too simple (in German) ⬇️ www.nzz.ch/pro/china-us...

Kommt es zum offenen Konflikt zwischen China und den USA, hätte Peking ein perfektes Mittel, um seinem Konkurrenten zu schaden. Warum Hafenkräne ein Risiko sind

Apple still blocking access to news apps and podcasts at Moscow’s request

For the third time, Apple has removed a news app by the U.S.-funded Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) from its Russian version of the App Store, the media outlet said.

I did look back on the influence operations before the U.S. elections with @hultquist.bsky.social. Many experts feared that foreign hackers would interfere with the U.S. elections this year. But no major influence operation succeeded. Why was that? www.nzz.ch/english/in-2...
