A new report says China's APT10 hackers were likely behind the infiltration of ~10 global telecom companies last yr. Same group indicted by DoJ in Dec https://t.co/kdERmTXGWx w/ @timothywmartin

Unknown hackers using techniques associated with a Chinese group have been targeting telecom companies and trying to steal call records, GPS data, and more, according to @cybereason: https://t.co/cUQXPG1IGE

WSJ says 10 carriers, 20 China-linked targets: https://t.co/59VRkQb8QG

Good lord. Researchers have said they’ve uncovered a ‘massive espionage operation’. 7 years of data hacked from 10 mobile phone networks. If you’re part of it, it would pretty much tell them where you were every minute of the day. Likely a state of coursehttps://t.co/WOaVyVKZGd

"the hackers could track the physical location of any customer of the hacked telcos — including spies and politicians"

This is fine. https://t.co/useEYfmXRv
New: Security researchers say they've found a "massive-scale" espionage operation of hackers breaking into at least 10 cell networks around the world and stealing hundreds of gigabytes of call records at a time. https://t.co/vkAwUSFaQA

FWIW, the attribution to APT10 is basically based on TTPs, which are in this case rather generic and would fit several other Chinese groups with known similar targeting profiles, too. *justsaying*
Before everybody goes crazy, read the line: “Cybereason said it has not yet seen the hackers target North American providers” https://t.co/HAwPP6fuko

Hackers backed by #China targeted 20 people across Asia, Europe, Africa & the Middle East by infiltrating cell network of 10 global carriers. Imagine how much easier it will be for them to do this when carrier’s cell network built with #Huawei equipment. https://t.co/MArFUIRsyw

Worried that your phone might be hacked to track your location, who you call and when? One cyberespionage group has just provided a reminder that hackers don't necessarily even need to reach out to your device to gain that kind of access. https://t.co/xKf1nO0gQ6

You are an attacker. You need to spy on 20 specific individuals & construct a profile on each one of them. What will you do?

Compromise 10 telco providers through vulnerable web services, move laterally and collect phone metadata.
