Cognitive attacks against the VR and automatized computing systems are a real threat.

    Cognitive attacks against the VR and automatized computing systems are a real threat. 



Above: Ukranian drone operator uses VR glasses. Those systems are potential targets for cyber-attacks that can deliver propaganda or be used in other psychological or cognitive operations. 


The cognitive systems learn from their mistakes. And that thing makes cognitive systems more lethal than any other system. In this version of an essay that handles cognitive attacks, the perspective is on cyber attacks like AI-driven neural networks. Those neural networks operate as independent attackers. 

AI must not rest or keep breaks. That means it can attack against other systems 24/7. The attacker can give orders to an AI-based system. Then go to work. When the day is over, return to home or the hacking place. The hacker probably uses an attacking system by using a remote control. That denies the possibility of closing the hacker's internet by tracking the attacking computer. That can hidden in some offices or business hotels. 

The hacker can use one computer to pollute others with malicious software that turns the large computer's entirety into a zombie network. The hacker can select any computer in that network. And then give orders to the system to begin the attack. 

AI like Chat GPT, makes it possible to create complicated malicious tools that can infect multiple systems. The hacker can control millions of computers. That kind of malicious software is more complicated than ever before. They can avoid disturbing the computer's normal operations and remain in RAM (Read Access Memory). And write themselves to hard disk in pieces, which makes them hard to detect. 

The cognitive neural network can involve thousands or millions of computers. The system can share itself into components or segments. It can use each network segment or computer as an independent attacker.  In that model, the attacking system can change the attacking computer and IP address very fast. And that makes it hard to close those addresses. 


The cognitive attack can mean:

1) propaganda or some other thing. That can affect to target's cognitive abilities. 


2) The attack where an AI-based- system makes multiple different types of attacks against targeted systems. 


Then the AI learns what is the best way to break defense. Then the AI-based system can expand the operational sector. In that learning process, the AI selects the best results. That it gets from the other similar activities it uses that methodology for new systems. 

The attacking system uses some collected datasets that it uses for creating passwords. Those datasets can be information that connects to the operator's personal history and workplaces. Then the system searches people, who are working in targeted systems. Then the AI starts to test those companies with suspected usernames that are normally firstname dot lastname with company email address. 


The AI searches for the response times and tries to determine if the dataset involves the right and effective information. If the username is right, the response from the target system takes longer than if both, the username and password are wrong. Number of right letters and numbers determines the response time in the password.  

Even if the targeted system closes the access from a certain IP address. The cognitive AI-based neural network can simply change the computer or IP address. That is used in the attack. This kind of attack is a classic hacker attack whose purpose is to steal information. 

Cognitive attacks are dangerous tools. They can used to affect people. The civilians use the BlueTooth earphones. And the hacker who can break those BlueTooth identification codes can send information into those wireless systems. 

Modern warfare is full of technical solutions. The attack drones use VR headsets to communicate with their operators. The wireless earphones and radiocommunication with secured data transmissions are the best in business. But those systems involve threats. 


People trust those systems. And if those systems are fallen results can be devastating. The entire communication. Along with GPS data can get into the hands of the enemy.


When somebody can break the codes that those systems use. The cyber attacker can use that information to cut communication lines. In worst cases, the cyber attacker can delete codes from IFF systems that identify are some targets friendly or hostile.

Or if cyber sabotage is targeted to factories that build drones or some other high-tech military merchandise like missiles the system can simply deny to load operating systems to those smart weapons. Or send propaganda transmissions to the drone operators. The drone operators can attack accidentally against their troops if the cyber attacker can transmit disinformation to those systems.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...
