Salt Typhoon Campaign Targets Major U.S. Telecom Firms in Cyberespionage Effort

The Chinese hacking collective "Salt Typhoon" has been exposed by the United States for its cyberespionage effort, which involved breaking into at least eight U.S. telecom companies, including Verizon, AT&T, and TMobile, and stealing metadata from countless Americans. Although call content was not accessed, stolen metadata, like call duration, recipients, and locations, might provide intimate details about a persons life. Audio intercepts over the phone were also allegedly corrupted in certain instances. Addressing the hack has been a top priority for the White House, and President Biden has been briefed several times. The threat was emphasised by a classified Senate meeting that included the FBI and FCC. This hack emphasises how urgently telecommunications cybersecurity needs to be improved to safeguard vital infrastructure and stop future abuse. Read More..

President Biden Makes Historic First Visit to Angola, Strengthening U.S.Angola Relations

The first time a sitting U.S. president visited Angola was Tuesday when U.S. President Joe Biden met with Angolan President João Lourenço in Luanda.

The first time a sitting U.S. president visited Angola was Tuesday when U.S. President Joe Biden met with Angolan President João Lourenço in Luanda. During their discussions, Biden highlighted a $3 billion U.S. investment in the Lobito Corridor railway redevelopment project. He expressed satisfaction with the two countries Cold Warera alliance. By improving raw material transit between Angola, Zambia, and Congo, this corridor seeks to offset Chinas regional influence.

To recognise the historical ties between the two countries and talk about potential future collaboration, Biden will also stop by Angolas National Slavery Museum. Read More..

A Manhattan securities fraud case against Barclays has been settled for $19.5 million. The shareholders claimed that the bank had misled them about its adherence to regulatory requirements.

According to shareholders, relying on Barclays guarantees about its internal controls and regulatory compliance led to losses. The tentative settlement was submitted to a federal court and needs U.S. District Judge Katherine Polk Faillas permission. Barclays still disputes any misconduct regarding compensation. Read More..
