Kaspersky Lab CEO Evgeniy Kaspersky spoke about this in an interview with Kommersant, answering the question whether he considers the image of Russian hackers as the most dangerous to be justified.
“Attribution is very difficult to do; in fact, we can only do language attribution. All we see is computer data: applications, traffic, some connections, some language features or time zones. “Very often it turns out that in Russian-speaking gangs there are not only Russians, but also Ukrainians, people from Eastern Europe, that is, it is essentially international,” Kaspersky noted. – But yes, Russian-speaking groups are behind the most complex and professional criminal attacks. In the world of cyber espionage, according to our observations, besides Russian, correct native English and Chinese are the loudest. These are the most prominent languages represented, but there are plenty of others besides them.”
