Russian hackers cyberspies exploit weakness in US cyber defense
[IsraelTimes] Group known as 'Fancy Bears' targets dozens of employees working on secret projects including drones, missiles, stealth fighter jets, cloud-computing platforms
BLUF: During the sample period ending May 2016, up to 40% of contractors clicked on phishing links targetting their personal email accounts, primarily Gmail. Anonymous sources claim the FBI was aware of the phishing campaign, while DSS explicitly does not concern itself with personal email issues. Only one of those interviewed by reporters was warned of problem by “US officials”, whoever they might be.
Russian hackers exploited a key vulnerability in US cyber defenses to come within reach of stealing some of the nation’s most secret and advanced defense technology, an News Agency that Dare Not be Named investigation has found.

What may have been stolen is uncertain, but the cyberspies clearly took advantage of poorly protected email and scant direct notification of victims.
