Doug Britton, an executive from RunSafe Security, said the Lumen access would give a group like Volt Typhoon `the ability to do broad, silent surveillance.`The Chinese Embassy didn’t respond to this secure data attack. However, Beijing denies any involvement in the secure data attack. The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency added the Versa vulnerability to their list of `known exploited vulnerabilities.`
Black Lotus Lab researchers say the hackers tried to steal and use credentials on customers of weakened firms. The Chinese hackers attacked the secure data from Versa. They saw it as a way to access other networks linked to the unprotected Versa servers.
Mike Horka, a security researcher, made a declaration about the data protection attack from the hackers. `This wasn’t limited to just telecoms, but managed service providers and internet service providers.` Horka said `these central locations that they can go after, which then provide additional access.`
Versa confirmed the cybersecurity attack. Dan Maier, the Versa Chief Marketing Officer said: `Versa confirmed the vulnerability and issued an emergency patch at that time. We have since issued a comprehensive patch and distributed this to all customers.`
