Someone has been quietly backdooring selected Juniper routers around the world in key sectors including semiconductor, energy, and manufacturing, since at least mid-2023.

Gee who is really interested in securing semiconductor technologies these past few years.

I wonder who could be behind this attack, probably Zimbabwe.

You're just saying that because Trump wants Greenland.

(Seriously though, this timeline is stupid enough that there's a non-zero chance Trump really does use "Denmark is h4XX0rz our routers" as a casus bellum.)
