In November 2019, an anonymous Twitter account called @m4lwatch posted some tweets. He says he found hacking software belonging to Sandworm - the hackers of the Russian secret service. And he draws a connection between Sandworm and NTC Vulkan - the company of the #VulkanFiles.
@m4lwatch writes about “Znatok”, a Russian name for someone who seems to know everything. "Znatok" is said to be used for cyber attacks. M4lwatch suspects that such targets could be people or embassies. Where he got this information from, he leaves open.
"Znatok" also appears in the #VulkanFiles - for example, a virtual computer is set up - a digital computer that does not need its own hardware. It is also called “Znatok”.
In a system called Scan from the #VulkanFiles, “Znatok” is also mentioned. Exactly this system is supposed to be approved by the military unit 74455 - by the GRU, by Sandworm.
So M4lwatch already knew some things about NTC Vulkan 2019. As part of this research, @derspiegel @paper_trail_m @ZDFfrontal contacted several people who follow the account or who are followed. Nobody has an answer as to who is behind “m4lwatch”.
The research, now online: spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/v…
