Here's our new blog discussing the current status of IO Campaigns Linked to Notorious Russian Businessman Prigozhin Persist After His Political Downfall and Death - cloud.google.com/blog/topics/th…
Kudos @AldenWahlstrom @DavidMainor13 Amazing work on this!

Much appreciation to the community of researchers in this space providing awareness surrounding these campaigns. In particular, the work of @alleyesonwagner has been critical in informing our collective understanding of specifically Africa-focused IO activity.

Always an amazing experience getting to work alongside the incomparable @AldenWahlstrom

Great reporting from @dnvolz covering recent efforts by the Information Operations Team @Mandiant @Google tracking multiple influence campaigns that have variously been linked to Prigozhin - cloud.google.com/blog/topics/th…

New: Russian trolls farms linked to Yevgeny Prigozhin remain active months after the mercenary chief died in a plane crash and are likely to continue peddling disinformation aimed at influencing opinions on the war in Ukraine and the 2024 U.S. elections wsj.com/politics/natio…

Loved seeing my former boss @LeeFosterIntel talk about threats posed by AI in the IO space. My favorite takeaway was his comment about how "scale does not equal traction," citing the hurdles threat actors still have to overcome when conducting influence campaigns #DRAGONBRIDGE

Welcome back from lunch! @LeeFosterIntel kicks off our lightning round with a presentation on generative AI and information operations. #CYBERWARCON

No surprise here, but interesting nonetheless to see the Iranian influence campaign Liberty Front Press actively engaged in the promotion of narratives critical of Israel and in favor of Hamas. Our team has been tracking this campaign since at least 2018. mandiant.com/resources/blog…

Fantastic work by my @Mandiant colleagues @BenSRead and Yuri Rozhansky highlighting, among more traditional CE threat activity, the role of information operations within the context of the Israel-Hamas war @CYBERWARCON.
CYBERWARCON@CYBERWARCON
Next up, Yuri Rozhansky and @BenSRead of @Mandiant discuss the Israel-Hamas war in cyber. @JohnHultquist thanks them and other speakers who quickly pivoted their presentation content to cover a timely topic. #CYBERWARCON

As an open source researcher you often cover data or footage that is highly contested and ethically difficult. Director of Research and Training @gianfiorella has written a guide to navigating ethical dilemmas in our field. bellingcat.com/resources/2023…

This research was led by a Bellingcat Global Authentication Project member and is now being picked up by major news outlets in Finland.
Bellingcat@bellingcat
Bellingcat and @bellingcatgap member Teemu Nieminen geolocated the venues using social media posts from the event. By comparing images, we were able to place the 2022 and 2023 gatherings at properties owned by a hospitality company in southern Finland.

Great 🧵and reporting from @arawnsley summarizing recent findings by @Meta surrounding the now longstanding pro-PRC campaign we at @Mandiant track as DRAGONBRIDGE.

Fontanka is confirming that Prigozhin was indeed on board the plane that crashed, alongside a number of Wagner commanders.
Fontanka is a very reliable independent Petersburg-based outlet with a number of sources close to Prigozhin.

The plane that just crashed outside of Tver was reportedly owned by Prigozhin. 7 dead on board, none of whom have been identified.
