RE: Russian Hacking Code found on Vermont Computer
I'm pretty sure it's a true story, as it has been reported by several reputable sources. As a programmer, I can tell you that it is completely plausible to recognize signature-type patterns in code, and it's just a good thing they scanned the machines when they did to find it. This was a win for counter-terrorism.
It's concerning that this sort of thing is being found not because of what is actually being found, but because of what might be missed. Thank you for your reply!
