- U.S. Officials have added a ninth telecommunications company to the list of entities compromised by a sweeping Chinese-linked cyberespionage operation known as Salt Typhoon.
- The hackers gained access to the private communication of an unknown number of Americans as part of the campaign.
- Neuberger said that the 'Chinese gained access to networks and essentially had broad and full access,' allowing them to 'geolocate millions of individuals, to record phone calls at will.'
- Neuberger highlighted the need for required cybersecurity practices in the telecommunications industry, as voluntary practices are inadequate against hacking from China, Russia, and Iran.
