SPIEGEL
published two
pieces
this morning about the NSA’s Tailored Access Operations (TAO) division,
aka premier hacking ninja squad. According to Snowden documents, TAO
has a catalog of all the commercial equipment that carries NSA
backdoors. And it’s a who’s who of a list. Storage products from Western
Digital, Seagate, Maxtor and Samsung have backdoors in their firmware,
firewalls from Juniper Networks have been compromised, plus networking
equipment from Cisco and Huawei, and even unspecified products from
Dell. TAO actually intercepts online orders of these and other
electronics to bug them.
