    FSB officers prevented a terrorist attack that three citizens of “one of the Central Asian countries” were allegedly planning to carry out in the Stavropol Territory. The department stated this, Interfax writes.

    According to the intelligence service, the suspects were planning to set off an explosion in one of the crowded places.

    During searches at the place of residence of the detainees, “components of an improvised explosive device, chemical substances and destructive elements were discovered and seized,” the FSB said.

    A criminal case has been opened for a terrorist attack (part 1 of article 30, paragraph “a”, part 2 of article 205 of the Criminal Code). The FSB did not disclose other details of the case and the identities of the detainees.

    The intelligence service distributed a video that allegedly shows the detainees. In the video, three men walk down the street, enter a pharmacy, a hardware store and a grocery store. After the cut, it is shown how they are detained by FSB officers and thrown to the ground.

    The FSB published a message about the prevention of a terrorist attack in the Stavropol region exactly a week after the terrorist attack on Crocus City Hall in the Moscow region. On March 22, a group of armed men opened fire in a concert hall and then set the building on fire. As a result of the terrorist attack, according to the latest data, 144 people were killed and more than 380 injured.

    The ISIS cell Vilayat Khorasan claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack in Crocus . Russia says Ukraine is behind the attack. Kyiv denies these accusations.

    The United States and other countries warned of possible terrorist attacks in Russia back in early March. The head of Ukrainian military intelligence, Kirill Budanov , claimed that the Russian special services knew about the preparation of a terrorist attack in Crocus since February 15. After the attack, FSB director Alexander Bortnikov admitted that US intelligence agencies warned Russia in advance about a possible terrorist attack, but then this information was not confirmed.

    According  to The New York Times, US intelligence agencies transferred to Russia only part of the information they had about the threat of a terrorist attack in Moscow, because they were afraid of revealing the sources of information against the backdrop of deteriorating relations between the Russian Federation and the West.

    Revolutionizing Data Storage: Synology's Impact and Future Trends

      3dnews By  Synology Inc.  synology.com 2 min View Original The choice was largely due to the security of data storage, which is ensured by a whole range of measures, including those that rely on the capabilities of the Btrfs file system (for example, such as Snapshot Replication technology or automatic self-healing of files). With this file server, you can be sure that the failure of one of the hard drives will not lead to data loss. Among the requirements for the network drive was performance. It was important that the NAS ensure stable operation of several tasks at once. For example, someone could watch a video, someone could download data, and at the same time another employee would record photographic material that had just been taken at the exhibition. The Synology DS918+ model fully satisfies these requirements, and it still has opportunities to increase performance: expanding memory, installing high-speed solid-state modules to create a system cache. We plan to take advantage

      Meet the Flint24 hacker How a friend of a cybercrime fighter, Deputy Dengin, turned out to be one of the largest sellers of stolen bank cards. Meduza investigation By  Maria Kolomychenko   meduza.io 20 min View Original Olya Levina for Meduza On March 24, 2020, the FSB  announced  a “large-scale special operation” to arrest a large group of carders - fraudsters who, according to the intelligence service, ran 90 online stores selling stolen bank card data. As Meduza found out, this press release was a “gift” for his birthday: the intelligence service thus “congratulated” businessman from the Kaluga region Alexei Stroganov, who turned 48 that day. Meduza IT editor Maria Kolomychenko tells how Stroganov, who is called “one of the oldest carders in all of Rus',” became a businessman, a friend of Russian politicians, a fighter against cybercrime and the recipient of an FSB certificate of honor—but never gave up his old habits. In November 2019, the St. Petersburg judo club “Turbostroi

      Russia's Connection to Havana Syndrome: Fact, Fiction, or In-Between? ecency.com 12 min April 18, 2024 View Original One of the most common arguments among Russian assets in the West, other than the outdated lies about "Ukrainian Nazis" of course, (1)  is the claim that the West is making excuses to attack "poor, innocent Russia" who they claim was never hostile toward the West. Attempts to define what possible motive they ascribe to this alleged "anti-Russian hostility" range from "because Russia resists Western hegemony" to conspiracy theories about some Soros-and-Rothschild-led "New World Order" which is never fully defined other than "because we don't have a platform other than 'the mainstream's gotta be wrong some way or another even if we can't explain how, and our views won't make sense unless you take it as axiomatic gospel that there is some sort of shadowy globe-spanning conspiracy behind them.&q
