Unauthorized access was detected from China outside of the procedure.
With that access they could have done anything ( eg. eavesdropping ).
Follow up requests are currently happening by the Dutch government ( other related news from today).
KPN also mentioned: currently they have no access. While the report states: they had access.
KPN mentioned that Huawei's employees with access were employed by KPN. Wick could be correct, but it didn't explain access from China since those employees are employed in the netherlands.
A bit of wordplay going around. That's true.

Capgemini:
Huawei blijkt zich buiten de procedure om vanuit China toegang tot de kern van het netwerk te verschaffen. Veiligheidsmensen van KPN weten dat dit gebeurt, maar doen niets. ‘Ongecontroleerde en ongeautoriseerde toegang vanuit China heeft na 28 oktober 2009 daadwerkelijk plaatsgevonden’, vermeldt het rapport in april 2010.
[...]
De onderzoekers [van Capgemini] vragen het Chinese bedrijf daarom wie bij de gegevens kan en hoe de versleuteling is geregeld. ‘Pas na lang aandringen’ is Huawei bereid ‘duidelijkheid te verschaffen’. Huawei blijkt een uiterst zwakke versleuteling toe te passen en zelf het sleutelbeheer te doen. Capgemini: ‘Daarmee zijn nummers die onder de tap staan bekend bij Huawei’.
Edit: couldn't respond below. Source is the origin of all foreign news articles, it's the original newspaper that is in possession of the Capgemini report: https://www.volkskrant.nl/nieuws-achtergrond/huawei-kon-alle-gesprekken-van-mobiele-kpn-klanten-afluisteren-inclusief-die-van-de-premier~bd1aece1/ https://www.volkskrant.nl/nieuws-achtergrond/huawei-kon-alle...

- boomboomsubban 6y agoWhere is this Capgemeni statement from? It's extremely strange that they make several accusations yet the only part that's actually from the report is the same quote mentioned before. The [...] also moves on to a completely new topic. Overall, it says the same "Huawei could have done something" as the other sources I've seen.
