NSA Targets System Administrators to Obtain Access

Daniel 12:4 NLT “But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase."

The latest NSA revelation revealed they obtained access to multiple systems by targeting the system administrator for hacking and surveillance.

The document from fugitive NSA leaker Edward Snowden revealed that the NSA would target the personal Facebook and emails of system administrators to hack their personal computers to gain information on corporate systems.

One of the documents released was actually titled “I hunt sys admins.”

The NSA targeted more than passwords once they obtained system access.  They would obtain customer lists, network maps, business correspondence and even information described as “pictures of cats in funny poses with amusing captions.”

The document also showed the NSA targeting users of the TOR web browsing system that has higher levels of security than the normal systems.
