Welcome

Rainbow Six Siege pulls me in opposite directions at the same time. On the one hand, the moment-to-moment gameplay experience is fantastic. Every second of the short rounds matter, walls and floors won’t protect you, and sound tactics win matches. But, like other 2015 multiplayer-focused shooters such as Evolve and Star Wars Battlefront, there’s not a lot of there there. My time with Siege leaves me feeling like this Rainbow Six revival is a skeleton with not a lot of meat on its bones. Siege reboots the long-running Rainbow Six series as a five-on-five, attack-and-defend competitive shooter that’s as much about blowing holes in the world around you as in your opponents. Destruction is no gimmick; shooting through walls, blasting through floors and ceilings, and keeping as much of your corporeal Special Forces husk behind fragile cover during firefights is key to extending your life in each of the respawn-free modes. Using a gadget to detect the presence of an enemy and fragging them through what would, in most other first-person shooters, be an indestructible hunk of drywall isn’t just satisfying; it’s thrilling. And while Siege isn’t the best-looking shooter out there in terms of environmental detail or character models, it includes memorable touches like the arterial blood spray that coats the wall behind your target when you off them. It looks like something truly terrible happened in that spot. Playing defense (in applicable game modes) is a strategic rush because you know the attackers could burst through a wall at any moment. When defending an objective, you’ll have 30 seconds or so at the start of a round to fortify key areas with barbed wire on the floor, barricades, reinforced doors and windows, and more, to limit the enemy’s ability to approach their target from certain angles. I haven’t liked fortification in a shooter this much since Gears of War 3’s Horde mode. Rainbow Six’s audio deserves special mention here, too, because the only soundtrack to each map is the sounds each player makes. Sure, there’s the obvious stuff like gunshots, but it’s the little noises like the suction of a breach charge being placed on a wall or floor, or the metallic rustle of an enemy wading through a barbed wire trap that, if you listen closely, can clue you in on what the other guys are about to do. Then, when things get loud, delightful chaos ensues. That offense-vs.-defense is reflected in Siege’s Operators – 20 characters (10 attackers and 10 defenders) each team can choose from, each with unique skills. I’m rather partial to Sledge, who can instantly pound holes through walls and floors; Thermite, who can laser-cut his way through reinforced doors or windows; and Pulse, who can detect nearby heartbeats through any surface (though defender Mute can block any nearby gadget as a counter). On the other side of that spectrum, I couldn’t find a use for the Stimpack gun-toting Doc, as very few firefights ended with wounded teammates – guns tend to be so lethal you’re either alive or dead, with nothing in between. I’m also happy with most of the 11 included maps. Bank is an early favorite, as there’s a basic cops-and-robbers fantasy fulfillment in trying to rescue a hostage from a bank vault while the other team is leveling walls to try and get to you While the maps have enough variety between them, the adversarial game modes feel very similar. Hostage, Bomb, and Secure Area are all variations of, “Try to get into a place the other team is keeping you out of.” The CTF-like Hostage carries the most potential, since it ostensibly has the added goal of grabbing a human-shaped flag and carrying it out of danger, but in my experience no one ever even got to the hostage, let alone rescued him/her. Instead, an overwhelming majority of rounds ended with one team getting wiped out. As for the returning Horde-like Rainbow Six favorite, Terrorist Hunt, where you and your team hold out against waves of AI enemies? Normal mode is a bit of a misnomer. On that skill, the CPU-controlled creeps have fairly lousy aim and won’t take advantage of many of Siege’s new mechanics outside of shooting through walls. Crank it up to at least Hard and you’ll have a better, more realistic, human-simulating challenge with your friends. Finally, there are Situations: 10 single-player training missions (on the same 10 maps) that spotlight half of the 20 included Operators. They serve as decent tutorials for multiplayer proper, but because you don’t have AI teammates at your side, they teach you little about the tactics and choices you’ll have at your disposal when other people get involved. After that, the bonus Situation 11 that unlocks after you complete the other 10 actually backfires as a pleasant surprise. Not because it’s bad – quite the opposite! It’s a five-player bespoke Terrorist Hunt scenario, complete with an intro cutscene, a unique gameplay hook I won’t spoil, and a post-mission cutscene that basically announces, “Rainbow Six is back! And we’ll totally hook you up with a proper co-op campaign next time, promise!” It’s effectively the developers saying, “Here’s everything you wanted in a narrative-driven campaign that we totally could’ve given you!” It’s a tease. The least interesting part of Rainbow Six Siege is its progression system. Literally everything is locked when you first fire up the game, including ranked multiplayer matches, which don’t become available until you reach character level 20 – easily 10+ hours. Siege more or less forces you to play the Situations in order to earn Renown, the currency used to unlock the 20 Operators and their weapon attachments. Completing all 10 and achieving 90% of the secondary objectives along the way allowed me to unlock half of the Operator roster. After that, however, it’s a slow grind, as the second 10 require much more Renown to unlock, and completing Terrorist Hunt or PvP matches doesn’t earn you much. Especially if you lose. And that doesn’t even take into account the additional Renown you’ll need in order to unlock vital attachments like scopes and recoil suppressors. It’s almost as if the game wants you to spend real-world cash on Renown point bundles in order to speed up the process. Despite the barbed wire and reinforced walls that Rainbow Six Siege makes you walk through in order to get to the meat of the gameplay, I can’t stop thinking about how much fun that gameplay is. I’ve already made new online friends with like-minded players who embrace Siege’s team-centric mechanics. It’s more cerebral than the twitch-and-react shooters of the day like Call of Duty and Halo – which doesn’t make Siege better or worse, but it does make it refreshingly different.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman reportedly hacked Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos' phone in 2018, an infiltration that is said to have resulted in large amounts of data being covertly stolen from the tech executive's phone over the course of months. The incident was revealed in a forensic investigation conduced by FTI consulting that was first reported by The Guardian earlier this week. The United Nations has since called on the United States and other relevant authorities to conduct an investigation. The Saudi government denied the allegations against it and called them "absurd." While reports suggest the Bezos hack was a specific and targeted attack, security experts say that the critical amount of sensitive data stored on today's smartphones means mobile devices will continue to be high-value targets for state-sponsored attackers and black market hackers alike. It also illustrates that anyone, even prominent CEOs with vast resources, can be vulnerable to cybersecurity threats. "It's ultimately a fact of life at this point," Paul Lipman, CEO of cybersecurity firm BullGuard, said to Business Insider. "As more of what we do relies on technology, [devices] become a target." Although it may be impossible to completely prevent and detect some cyber attacks before they occur, there are certain measures that both high-profile figures like Bezos and average smartphone users can take to mitigate the risks, experts say. The first thing people need to do to protect themselves is understand how they might be vulnerable to attacks. The data theft that affected the Amazon CEO is said to have occurred after Bezos received a video file through the po[CENSORED]r Facebook-owned messaging app WhatsApp from the Saudi crown prince's account. The file was sent with an encrypted downloader, according to the technical report from FTI Consulting, which Vice's motherboard published on Wednesday. Bezos' phone reportedly began leaking data within hours of the encrypted downloader being received, and it continued to do so for months, FTI Consulting's report said. In its statement calling for an investigation, the United Nations said that spyware tools believed to have previously been used by Saudi officials, such as the NSO Group's Pegasus-3 malware, may have been used to execute the attack. Malware attacks can generally be difficult to prevent because, in some cases, the target doesn't even need to click on a link or download a file to become infected. A previous vulnerability in WhatsApp, for example, made it possible to inject spy software on a user's smartphone simply by calling them, even if the victim didn't answer. That exploitation was carried out using software from NSO Group, as the financial times reported. What's more, once malware infiltrates your phone and begins leaking data, there's a slim chance you'll be able to find it. Malicious actors employ a range of techniques to mask data extraction, such as sending emails from the infected phone and then deleting them afterwards, or trickling out small pieces of information over a long period of time, according to Lipman. "Malware wants to remain under the radar," said Etay Maor, chief security officer at Intsights. "And usually once it's in, it's extremely hard to identify that something is wrong." That's why Bogdan Botezatu, director of threat research and reporting at cybersecurity firm Trend Micro, suggests that high-profile targets like Bezos use two phones: one with no valuable personal information stored on it for browsing social media and using apps like WhatsApp, and a separate highly-secure phone with limited access to the Internet and apps for storing sensitive information. Maor similarly suggests leaving your primary mobile device in a secure location when traveling and bringing a burner phone instead to mitigate the risk of an attack. "There's no such thing as 'this device cannot be hacked,'" Maor said. "And we've seen this over and over again. So at the end of the day, it's a game of risk management." Such measures may be practical and worthwhile for public-facing figures like Bezos, one of the world's richest men who runs one of the world's most valuable companies and owns The Washington Post. But most people will probably be able to adequately protect themselves by following best practices when it comes to digital security, like keeping software up to date, avoiding downloading files from unknown sources, and only installing apps and programs from official app stores managed by Apple and Google. "The reality is that these kinds of attacks are highly targeted, not attacks that the average person is going to fall prey to," Lipman said. "And the reality is that anyone can be hacked, with enough time, motivation, and resources."
