Pakistan-Linked Cyber Bastards Stir Up Trouble, and Guess Who Has to Deal With It?

So apparently, some cyber-dipshits linked to Pakistan decided they’d spend their free time poking around in Indian government networks again. Because clearly, they didn’t get enough attention last time. Researchers from Insikt Group—those poor bastards paid to wade through virtual sewage—uncovered a bunch of sneaky little campaigns targeting India’s defense, energy, and government sectors. Lovely. Just what the digital world needs—another round of political cyber-dick-measuring.

These charming cyber goons—operating under cute aliases like Transparent Tribe (seriously, how about “Transparent Idiots”?)—have been flinging custom malware left and right. Remote access tools, credential stealers, phishing crap, the whole buffet. And before you ask, yes, they’re still using the same tired tricks—fake documents, malicious attachments, bogus lures—because creativity clearly isn’t their department.

The report basically says: “Hey, the same bunch of assholes are still around, but they’re trying harder now.” They’re evolving, using cloud infrastructure and encrypted messaging to stay hidden—like that cousin who owes you money and suddenly learned to ghost. What a shocker. It’s all a big, steaming pile of cyber-shenanigans with geopolitical seasoning on top. Pakistan denies involvement, of course, and India just keeps patching up while muttering “bloody hell” under its breath.

In short: it’s the same cyber-catfight, different year. A bunch of state-linked script kiddies doing their “espionage” cosplay while real security folks have to clean up the mess. As usual, nobody’s winning, and everyone else’s inbox just got a little more dangerous.

Here’s the full load of misery if you’ve got the stomach for it: https://thehackernews.com/2026/01/experts-detect-pakistan-linked-cyber.html

Reminds me of the time a junior admin “accidentally” sent our internal passwords spreadsheet to an external mailing list. When I confronted him, he said, “I thought the attachment was the meeting agenda!” So I changed his password to “IAmAnIdiot123” and revoked his printer access. Fair trade.
