The Electronics Markets of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
When we think about world-famous electronics markets in Asia, usually Shenzhen, Tokyo’s Akihabara, or Shanghai’s Beijing Road come to mind.
There’s another market that I’ve had my eye on for a few years: Nhật Tảo market in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It might not be as large or accessible as the more well-known markets, but it’s very much worth a visit if you’re in the area. I decided it was time to hop on my red motorbike (red things go faster) and give you a short tour of the central market, as well as some more hobbyist-friendly options.

Security firms pour on evidence of Chinese hacking against Vietnam
A hacking group with suspected ties to the Chinese government is engaged in an ongoing and expansive cyber espionage operation against Vietnamese organizations, based on evidence obtained by three different cybersecurity firms. The campaign’s discovery comes during a period of mounting geopolitical tension due to a territorial dispute related to the South China Sea. China, Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines, among other powers, disagree on which country has claim to a collection of resource-rich islands that sit in the middle of an important international trade route. Cybersecurity firms Votiro, FireEye and Fortinet each obtained phishing emails that were sent to Vietnamese organizations in recent months. Researchers say these emails carried certain forensic indicators, including overlaps in malware and attack servers, that can be traced back to a group previously attributed to Chinese hackers.

A hacking group with suspected ties to the Vietnamese government, known as APT32 or OceanLotus, has been actively conducting cyber espionage missions against valuable corporations, foreign governments, dissidents and domestic journalists since at least 2014, according to new research conducted by cybersecurity firm FireEye. “We have known them to target governments and citizens, but the targeting of global corporations — and the pace at which APT32 adapted — was unexpected,” said FireEye analyst Nick Carr. “Frankly, their capabilities surprised us.” FireEye was able to confirm that at least 12 private sector organizations were targeted by APT32, which is known to send well-crafted phishing emails with booby-trapped Microsoft Word attachments. Most of the assets initially compromised are geographically located in southeast Asia, Carr said. The findings underscore how developing nations are increasingly investing resources to cultivate their own hacking capabilities to effectively collect intelligence on both economic and political targets. By leveraging […]
