Name

Ani (or that's what people who work with her have been told)

Origin

Germany, Belgium and Netherlands

Organizations

Changing, she usually picks people to work with based on current interests

Known Details

In the online world not much is known about Ani personally. She has been active for quite a while; her current handle can be at least found for six years - which matches up with the fact that she is midway through her 20s, according to her. She is known to be more along the activist lines, than the professionals or those who just enjoy sparking chaos. She likes to teach people, especially in the online community showing newbies where to find new information and what to try. She also likes to keep to herself, so little is known about her normal life. To be honest even if Ani is a her or him is kept out of the virtual world and anybody getting to really work with her is sworn to secrecy (or misinformation).
As she usually deals with hardware security, highlighting how vulnerable even life-securing systems are, she can not completely shut people out of her life. Her coarse location is known from her working range and has led to some speculation about her real personality, especially leading to some activist in the hacker organization "Chaos Computer Club" - but essentially all of those are unconfirmed. Probably as even with the speculations taking there it is still unsure if one must look for a woman or man.
Even her actions are sometimes hard to track, but the one she wants to be known by community are usually somehow connected to a sticker of her avatar.

The very few people knowing her better in a personal way (which are always people having worked with her more than once) know that she has some hobbies besides electronic, doing dance classes and Kendo. She makes a living by helping her family organize a local bakery chain, doing necessary IT work in the still small enterprise but also such mundane things as stepping in for an ill driver or sales assistant.

Name

Prof. apl. Jakob Matsen

Origin

Germany

Organizations

Siegaue University

Known Details

Jakob took a very academical approach to becoming a security expert. At a rather young age he started to toy around with computers and hung out a lot with his older cousins who fiddled with hardware. Soon enough he did the same and step by step learned about hardware and programming as the information age progressed on. He decided to study computer science - a very promising area in his student days - and started to learn things in a more structured way. He had already learned about hackers and the dangers connected to them, but being just a young student he did not care so much. The threat did not seem too apparent, after all it was less dangerous than in this day and age. He rather continued fiddling with hardware and slid into the more technical inclined groups.

His professors were happy with his success and he found a position as a doctoral researcher. One of the first conferences he attended changed his mind. A very passionate speaker laid out the dangers of corruption through hackers and for the first time he felt the same, maybe because he was more aware of the easiness of the attacks, or maybe because of the speaker. In the end it brought him to shifting his own research into the vulnerabilities and possibilities to secure embedded systems.

After receiving his doctoral degree, he went to an american university as part of a small research group engaged in the research of interaction between hardware security and prevention of social engineering. His contract ended after two years, but a partner of the group offered him the possibility to be employed as a consultant. He stayed four more years, travelling the US and consulting different enterprises on their hardiness against social engineering, and choice and hardening of security systems.

In the end he admitted to himself that he missed the academical life, especially the open field of possibilities that research offered. After sending out a few applications he got accepted at his current university as an interim professor in embedded systems. His research still makes him travel often, as he tightly connects it to work with real world enterprises.

Known Details

When Erik was young he was just a normal ass script kiddie, he used to rip code straight from tutorials on how to code and though that he knew what he was doing. When he started college he took classes in social engineering and how to spot it while majoring in computer technology. He wanted to become a pentester but when he was contacted by a hacking organisation after cracking their honeypot he decided to join them. Exodus isnt in any way a good organisation they arent there to help people they are there to make money. They are known for using ransomware to get money from medium sized corporations. Their main hit was back in 2017 when they ransomed a CEO of a large corporation and forced him to pay 1 million dollars in BTC to have his files unlocked and not leaked

Pakistani VPN. Authorities have traced potentially correlated traffic to Israel, but no concrete details have been confirmed.

Organizations

Dragon's Scythe (Ad Hoc). The organization is responsible for releasing secret government documents exposing corruption and generating significant public unrest in over 30 countries across the globe. Chile has offered a $150,000 bounty for information related to Dragon's Scythe and President Trump has described the organization as "a major threat to cyber for the U.S., maybe even the world." While not a consistent member, OffByNone has proven him/herself regularly valuable.

Known Details

OffByNone is rarely active on Saturday afternoons and has an interest in all things scientific and technological. Attempts to pin down precise working hours have failed, but OffByNone willingly reveals trivial personal hobbies such as shows he/she is following, recent memes, and qualms with societal structure and customs.

Freischutz

Class:

Hacker

Handle:

Freischutz

Name:

Referred to as "Cassie" within her specific circles.

Origin:

England, though the exact city they operate out of is unknown.

Organisations:

The Samaritans - a group that shares its name with one of the United Kingdom's suicide prevention charities, apparently not by coincidence. The Samaritans have a tendency to play on England's naturally unruly nature, and typically weak or disliked governments, to push an anarchistic viewpoint on its followers. Despite the majority of their operations involving pranks, parodies, and fairly minimalist propaganda on a wide breadth of topics, the group has been loosely defined as a low severity Domestic Terrorist Cell. Presumably, this is due to suspicions that the group has had a hand in tampering with Local MP elections, and the leaking of confidential Cabinet documents relating primarily to inter-party relations, Brexit, Parlimentary decisions, and international trade. The leaks themselves have been rather docile, and contain little damaging information, but the potential for escalation is ever present.

Known Details:

Freischutz is active from nearly 7am to 1am every day, consistently. They tend to act rather jovial, especially around other Samaritans, and like to talk about their cat, Isabella. As one of the senior members of the group, presumably being active since its inception, Freischutz has free pick of the tasks they take - which seems to be a joke regarding their name, "Free Shooter", in some capacity. The Samaritans themselves are very tight lipped when it comes to their members and "missions", and surprisingly thorough in their protection for a relatively small time anarchist group, so information is hard to come by, even if they aren't a particularly "hidden" group.
