To folks at the cybersecurity firm Symantec, the hacking group they call "Longhorn" has always seemed like a state actor.*
The group has hacked 40 "targets" in 16 nations (https://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/longhorn-tools-used-cyberespionage-group-linked-vault-7), according to Symantec. Longhorn has gone after governments as well as groups involved in finance, energy, telecommunications, education and much more.*
"All of the organizations targeted would be of interest to a nation-state attacker," the Symantec Security Response team wrote on Monday.*

They **w believe that "nation-state attacker" is the CIA.*
Symantec doesn't say it outright, but it's hard to come to any other conclusion. Longhorn uses the same malware and hacking techniques laid out in documents published by Wikileaks in a release called Vault 7 (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/). Wikileaks says those documents belong to the CIA, and — despite Wikileaks's relatively new penchant for Russian government propaganda — basically ** one doubts the claim.* Read more...
