The source provides an overview of Operation Shotgiant, a sophisticated cyber-espionage effort by the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States targeting the Chinese telecommunications giant, Huawei. The operation began with an effort to determine if Huawei was spying on behalf of the Chinese government, as well as to map the company's internal structure and future plans. Ultimately, the NSA aimed to infiltrate Huawei to use its global equipment presence to access otherwise unreachable targets, such as an Iranian politician's router. The text details Huawei's meteoric rise, its history of industrial espionage accusations, and its alleged ties to the Chinese military and government, which formed the background for the NSA's operation. Information about Operation Shotgiant was later revealed through documents leaked by Edward Snowden, confirming the NSA's successful infiltration of Huawei's top executives' email communications. The source concludes by discussing the difficulty in proving if vulnerabilities in Huawei equipment were deliberate "back doors" or simply mistakes, though the US government continued to assert that such back doors existed.
