its funny how the article states that it's probarbly state sponsored due to the nature / complexity of the attack, but notes before it was possible to login to systems using admin/admin credentials >.> my brain hurts. if admin/admin was in place somewhere, then clearly there were no good procedures, no monitoring atall, no testing of their own infra in any good way. how then can u conclude it was complicated or difficult to attack it. 12 year olds could have made off with the data ffs >.> but sure, blame APT, CYBER, RUSSIA, TRUMP, <INSERT MOAR CYBER>
