A two-year FBI probe called Operation Cisco Raider discovered the use of some 3,500 counterfeit Cisco Systems network components made in China. The FBI says it doesn’t know whether or not the fake goods were part of a “state-sponsored intelligence effort” (i.e. CHINESE SPY PROGRAM). The potential threat with fake network equipment would be the potential ability of China to jam U.S. network equipment or make it easier to hack, according to the FBI. Despite the threat, the FBI worked with the Chinese government on the investigation, which resulted in arrests within China.
