TALK: Understanding ORBs, proxies and geospatial data exfiltration

Dr. Fyodor Yarochkin

ABSTRACT

In this session we dive into threats associated with a set of infrastructure of proxies and operation relay boxes involved in advanced data collection and exfiltration of geospatial information analysis. We discuss the design, the purpose and day to day operations of the infrastructure, the national threats associated with it and implications on a state security. Further, we dive into detailed observations from the network operations and possible attribution of identified backend interfaces.
