If a Cisco crypto key was found in a Huawei switch, the media response would be very different.
- emptyparadise 7y agoAs bad as American government and security services are, they are not as bad as their Chinese counterparts.
- PavlovsCat 7y agoWhat "media response" are you seeing, and where? From the article: > Given the ongoing political controversy around Huawei, we did not want to speculate any further [..] According to Cisco, no attack vectors have been identified What's wrong with that, and how would it be "different" if it was the other way around?
- bildung 7y agoI'm pretty sure the other way around it would be a foregone conclusion that Huawei stole IP from Cisco.
- PavlovsCat 7y agoLikely, but that didn't happen. And "the other way around" could also mean what Chinese media would write about Cisco private keys found in Huawei gear.
- ETHisso2017 7y agoYep, and you'd likely see Bloomberg running it as a feature special.

- rocqua 7y agoBloomberg ran a story [1] about a supply chain attack against apple, amazon, and others. It made big headlines, but evidence never emerged. It is now generally believed that the story was false. No one has found these chips and shown them, and the likes of apple and amazon have issued very direct denials (that would be very clear securities fraud if they were false). Much more direct than statements by corporations usually are.
