Maybe the attribution isn’t 100% (as would be expected with how the attacker masked themselves using techniques from every major nation state hacker) but Russian hackers were indeed indicted for it.
I thought it was a really valuable question! There are several Russian APTs and you made me question my understanding of the attack. I had to reread some stuff to make sure I could answer you properly.
No. Attribution wasn’t clear for Olympic Destroyer; it’s doubtful we’ll we ever know the specific APT responsible. Signals intelligence was used to guess at Russian attribution so we at least have a pretty good idea which country launched it.

Correct. That’s what I called out with my second link. Your question was whether Gamaredon did Olympic Destroyer.
Ah I get what you’re saying. Would be more helpful if lemmy presented more than one comment in context when replying.

I mean I was mainly joking and shoehorning in another story I knew a bit more about, but thank you for the other links for me to read :)
