The Agent.btz breach of Pentagon networks was pervasive enough that it sparked a multiyear initiative to revamp US military cybersecurity, a project called Buckshot Yankee. It also led to the creation of US Cyber Command, a sister organization of the NSA tasked with protecting DOD networks that today also serves as the home of the country's most cyberwar-oriented hackers.
between Agent.btz and Turla's malware that would come to be known as Snake. The espionage malware—which Kaspersky at the time called Uroburos, or simply Turla—used the same file names for its log files and some of the same private keys for encryption as Agent.btz, the first clues that the notorious USB worm had in fact been a Turla creation.
Because the satellite was broadcasting the data from the sky to the entire region, however, an antenna connected to Turla's command-and-control server would also be able to pick it up—and no one tracking Turla would have any way of knowing where in the region that computer might be located. The entire, brilliantly tough-to-trace system cost less than $1,000 a year to run, according to Tanase.
