1. Offensive cyber capabilities in Vadare appear to be the result of in-house and criminal/underground development.

1.1. The availability of malicious code via illicit networks is exploited as a means to minimize developmental expenses.

1.2. Tools obtained through these networks are modified to (1) better suite their objectives and (2) to further obfuscate the source of the attack.
