The Salt Typhoon operation has compromised telecom carriers across 'dozens of countries,' raising significant cybersecurity concerns globally, as acknowledged by Neuberger.
Neuberger indicated that while a small number of highly-targeted individuals' communications were affected, no classified U.S. communications have been breached so far.
To bolster defenses, Neuberger emphasized the need for mandatory cybersecurity requirements for the telecom sector, including clear rules on secure configurations and ongoing network monitoring.
U.S. officials revealed ongoing efforts to address the intrusion, with a unified coordination group meeting daily to tackle the Salt Typhoon issue and assist telecom networks.
