Chinese Hackers Had Unfettered Access To Nortel Networks For a Decade
An anonymous reader sends this quote from CBC News:
"Hackers based in China enjoyed widespread access to Nortel's computer network for nearly a decade, according to ... Brian Shields, a former Nortel employee who launched an internal investigation of the attacks, the Wall Street Journal reports [from behind a paywall]. ... Over the years, the hackers downloaded business plans, research and development reports, employee emails and other documents. According to the internal report, Nortel 'did nothing from a security standpoint' about the attacks."
Wife: Honey, I'm being raped Husband: Give it a minute, I want to check out his methods so we can prevent it in the future {two hours later} Husband: I think he has a penis
And what is the US going to take? The stolen documents back?
That would be a somewhat amusing cycle though. They steal from us; we destroy all of their hard drives.
Link to full article around the paywall? Are you a Chinese hacker?
Don't fight for your country, if your country does not fight for you.
Oh, wait. I see. That explains alot. :)
Where were all thier network security experts at?
Cisco and Juniper, mostly.
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
