Calling themselves The Shadow Brokers, the hackers released more than a gigabyte worth of highly sensitive tools allegedly belonging to the American National Security Agency (NSA), Tailored Access Operations (TAO) unit, the Equation Group. The capabilities exhibited in The Shadow Brokers’ hack were never heard of before and the leaked cache of exploits was so powerful that the group became immediately infamous.

The Shadow Brokers were not only able to gain access to the NSA’s toolbox, but they also managed to steal information about its modus operandi, including a list of agents‘ names and a code for hacking into Middle Eastern banks, linked to the NSA’s attack against financial institutions in the area. Surprisingly, however, as far as we know, The Shadow Brokers never used the stolen data in any kind of cyber attack.

To this day the true identity of the shadow brokers remains unknown...
