ABSTRACT: Northwest Russia and particularly St. Petersburg were a globally im- portant development center for information and communication technologies (ICT) during 1850-1950. The region’s position of strength deteriorated after this period as a consequence of the choices made about technology and Soviet secrecy. However, the region and its ICT industries still enjoy the benefits of education provision, the re- search-oriented tradition and inherited human and industrial capital. The transition to the market economy opened up many opportunities but also resulted in the evapora- tion of uncompetitive producers like giant electronics manufacturers. It also reduced financing and changed the priorities for R&D and education. At the same time, breakthroughs in telecom technologies and the overwhelming success of mobile communications greatly influenced the ICT industries in Russia. Understanding the major changes and trends is crucial for industrial policy and business strategy deci- sion makers. In this study, we identify the Northwest Russian ICT cluster and the key matters related to its competitiveness and growth prospects in the new environment.

    WWW.VIRUSBULLETIN.COM/CONFERENCE 2019 LONDON 2 – 4 October 2019 GEOST BOTNET. THE STORY OF THE DISCOVERY OF A NEW ANDROID BANKING TROJAN FROM AN OPSEC ERROR Sebastian García Stratosphere Laboratory and Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic Maria Jose Erquiaga Stratosphere Laboratory and UNCUYO University, Argentina Anna Shirokova Avast Software, Czech Republic [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Maintaining a good operational security (OpSec) is diffi cult because it increases the cost of work and decreases the speed of actions. This is true both for security analysts and for attackers. This paper describes a new botnet, which we called Geost, discovered thanks to multiple OpSec mistakes made by the attackers. The mistakes included: the use of the HtBot malware’s illegal proxy network; failing to encrypt the command-and-control servers; re-using security services; trusting other attackers that practise even less operational security; and failing to encrypt chat sessions. As far as we know, the Geost botnet has hundreds of malicious domains, 13 C&C servers, approximately 800,000 victims in Russia, and potential access to several million Euros in bank accounts. Moreover, the operational security mistakes led to the discovery of the names of members of an underground group related to the Geost botmasters. It is seldom possible to gain such an insight into the decisions taken by attackers due to failures in their operational security. This paper summarizes the mistakes and the risks taken by the botmasters, provides an overview of the botnet operation, an analysis of the victims, and a study of the social relationships of the developers.
