FBI : quand un réseau de surveillance entre dans la zone grise du cyber

Le FBI enquête sur des activités suspectes détectées en février 2026 sur un système sensible de son réseau. Derrière l’alerte, une question plus vaste s’impose.

Que se passe-t-il lorsque les outils conçus pour écouter, capter et documenter deviennent eux-mêmes vulnérables ?
L’incident dépasse le seul fait divers. Il touche à la sécurité intérieure, à la souveraineté numérique et à l’équilibre des puissances.
Dans un monde traversé par les rivalités, et pas seulement cyber, les dispositifs de surveillance ne sont plus seulement des instruments. Ils sont devenus des cibles stratégiques. Ils permettent de voir sans être vu.

Salt Typhoon is hacking the world’s phone and internet giants. Here’s everywhere that’s been hit.

Salt Typhoon is behind one of the broadest hacking campaigns in recent years, targeting some of the world’s largest phone and internet companies and stealing tens of millions of phone records about senior government officials. The hacking group, attributed to China, is part of a wider cluster of hackers with the collective aim of helping China prepare for an eventual war with Taiwan, according to researchers.

FBI Grapples With Breach of Its Surveillance Systems

The FBI is investigating a breach affecting systems that manage surveillance warrants. The incident highlights vulnerabilities in U.S. law enforcement cybersecurity.

The Daily Perspective

@as400 @khalid @postmarketOS I'm daily driving a #Librem5 with #postmarketOS and I've tested reliable voice calling successfully with multiple carriers in two counties. Also, tested with #PureOS.

Owners of older units may need to upgrade modem firmware and enable VoLTE manually. The real problem in my limited knowledge is carriers are blocking devices which are not on their 'approved list' or which they think are not VoLTE capable.

Another, bigger questions is: why are people still using unencrypted legacy voice calls for personal communications in 2026?

#SaltTyphoon

Watching talks on AI and Security at NTCA RTime this week. Wondering what if anything the co-ops are going to have to say about #CALEA and #SaltTyphoon

Any questions I should ask the presenters?

Maybe what, if any, help they're getting from #CISA

Norway's government accused China’s Salt Typhoon hacking group of conducting a cyberespionage campaign in the country.

TechCrunch

Norway’s PST has confirmed Salt Typhoon activity affecting Norwegian organizations, citing exploitation of vulnerable network devices within critical infrastructure environments.

The 2026 assessment frames cyber operations as China’s primary intelligence vector, while noting that Russia remains the most significant overall threat due to sustained espionage, infrastructure mapping, and hybrid operations. The report reinforces the convergence of cyber tradecraft with influence and HUMINT activity.

For defenders, the findings highlight the importance of network device visibility, cross-sector intelligence sharing, and long-term monitoring.
