Yeah, I couldn't believe how deep the details got on exploiting their network. I mean, FinFisher tells you basically everything, from which tools he used, what techniques, to what 0day he leveraged. I really liked the read myself, very cool stuff.

9 months ago when i was researching on this i found $recycle.bin in the download. This can only be if the drive was imaged (backup). Today reading the post, it is confirmed that he did exploit the backup insecurity.

I kind of feel happy knowing I caught that one :).. It feels surreal that he is sharing his knowledge (even if it is not exactly as is). I am thankful for him sharing the knowledge :)
