التاريخ
مزاعم تجسس الصين عبر حواسب سوبرميكرو
On October 4, 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek published a report, citing unnamed corporate and governmental sources, claiming that the Chinese People's Liberation Army had forced Supermicro's Chinese sub-contractors to add microchips with hardware backdoors to its servers. The report claimed that the compromised servers had been sold to U.S. government divisions (including the CIA and Department of Defense) and contractors, and at least 30 commercial clients (including Apple),[5] and were reportedly discovered by Amazon during a review of Elemental Technologies—a Supermicro client which Amazon would acquire in 2015.[5][6][7] Supermicro denied the report, stating that they had not been contacted by government agencies and were unaware of any investigation. Amazon and Apple also denied the Bloomberg claims, and the article has faced skepticism over its validity.[8][6][9] One of its named sources stated that the attack detailed seemed theoretical, and that he "couldn't rationalize in my head that this is the approach that anyone could take."[10]
