Britain is under attack! The biggest cyber attack we've ever seen, and it's bringing down telecommunications, banks and even the government itself.– as we're talking about Channel 4’s newest prestige TV series:, featuring Mark Rylance, Simon Pegg and Adrian Lester. In the Peter Kosminsky-created drama, a young intern, Saara trawls through a load of code and uncovers the attack designed to take out the UK, right before a general election. So far, so terrifying.
What about Saara the intern - would she really end up cracking some code and then in a COBRA meeting with the PM within the same first day? I didn’t like that line because I thought that was a bit too dramatic. A blanket line that all the banks are down…They have procedures in place so they wouldn’t go all down at the same time. Also, all our data isn’t in one place, it’s in several places around the world, and this is part of the resilience for the worst case scenario - it’s that backup.
You have to work out the attribution. There are groups called Advanced Persistent Threat groups which there are hundreds, if not thousands of, in the world. Such as The Fancy Bear group - if it has a bear at the end of it, it’s Russian. These APTs tend to have a way of writing their code and it gets analysed, which tends to give them away. If there’s Russian written around the code it could be Russians, but then it could be North Koreans writing in Russian code.
