“Israel’s pager attacks have changed the world”.
Bruce Schneier, a security technologist and a lecturer at the Harvard Kennedy School, highlights what Israel’s recent actions have revealed about the vulnerabilities throughout our world:
The bottom line: our supply chains are vulnerable, which means that we are vulnerable. Anyone — any country, any group, any individual — that interacts with a high-tech supply chain can potentially subvert the equipment passing through it. It could be subverted to eavesdrop. It could be subverted to degrade or fail on command. And, although it’s harder, it can be subverted to kill.
