In this eye-opening episode of Exploit Brokers, your host
Lauro dives deep into the recent cyberattacks that have compromised
major U.S. telecommunications networks. Chinese state-sponsored
hackers, known as Salt Typhoon, have exploited a 30-year-old
backdoor mandated by U.S. law, targeting giants like AT&T,
Lumen (formerly CenturyLink), and Verizon.
Drawing inspiration from Friedrich Nietzsche's quote:
"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself
does not become a monster... when you gaze long into the abyss, the
abyss also gazes into you."
We explore how attempts to control and monitor can sometimes
backfire, creating vulnerabilities that malicious actors can
exploit.
