Senator Mark Warner says booting ‘Salt Typhoon’ hackers could require physically replacing telecommunications equipment.
The Chinese state-sponsored hackers who breached AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile to spy on Donald Trump remain inside US networks, according to Senator Mark Warner.
In an interview with The , the Virginia Democrat and Senate Intelligence chairman provided more disturbing details about the cyber espionage effort, which was allegedly carried out by a Chinese hacking group known as Salt Typhoon.
Sen. Warner called the incident the « worst telecom hack in our nation’s history—by far. » But more startling, he says Salt Typhoon continues to spy on US networks despite the FBI’s involvement.
