Here's Apple's full response:
The October 8, 2018 issue of Bloomberg Businessweek incorrectly reports that
Apple found "malicious chips" in servers on its network in 2015. As Apple
has repeatedly explained to Bloomberg reporters and editors over the past 12
months, there is no truth to these claims.
Apple provided Bloomberg Businessweek with the following statement before
their story was published:
Over the course of the past year, Bloomberg has contacted us multiple times
with claims, sometimes vague and sometimes elaborate, of an alleged security
incident at Apple. Each time, we have conducted rigorous internal
investigations based on their inquiries and each time we have found
absolutely no evidence to support any of them. We have repeatedly and
consistently offered factual responses, on the record, refuting virtually
every aspect of Bloomberg's story relating to Apple.
On this we can be very clear: Apple has never found malicious chips, "
hardware manipulations" or vulnerabilities purposely planted in any server.
Apple never had any contact with the FBI or any other agency about such an
incident. We are not aware of any investigation by the FBI, nor are our
contacts in law enforcement.
In response to Bloomberg's latest version of the narrative, we present the
following facts: Siri and Topsy never shared servers; Siri has never been
deployed on servers sold to us by Super Micro; and Topsy data was limited to
approximately 2,000 Super Micro servers, not 7,000. None of those servers
have ever been found to hold malicious chips.
As a matter of practice, before servers are put into production at Apple
they are inspected for security vulnerabilities and we update all firmware
and software with the latest protections. We did not uncover any unusual
vulnerabilities in the servers we purchased from Super Micro when we updated
the firmware and software according to our standard procedures.
We are deeply disappointed that in their dealings with us, Bloomberg's
reporters have not been open to the possibility that they or their sources
might be wrong or misinformed. Our best guess is that they are confusing
their story with a previously-reported 2016 incident in which we discovered
an infected driver on a single Super Micro server in one of our labs. That
one-time event was determined to be accidental and not a targeted attack
against Apple.
While there has been no claim that customer data was involved, we take these
allegations seriously and we want users to know that we do everything
possible to safeguard the personal information they entrust to us. We also
want them to know that what Bloomberg is reporting about Apple is inaccurate.
Apple has always believed in being transparent about the ways we handle and
protect data. If there were ever such an event as Bloomberg News has claimed
, we would be forthcoming about it and we would work closely with law
enforcement. Apple engineers conduct regular and rigorous security
screenings to ensure that our systems are safe. We know that security is an
endless race and that's why we constantly fortify our systems against
increasingly sophisticated hackers and cybercriminals who want to steal our
data.
The published Businessweek story also claims that Apple "reported the
incident to the FBI but kept details about what it had detected tightly held
, even internally." In November 2017, after we had first been presented with
this allegation, we provided the following information to Bloomberg as part
of a lengthy and detailed, on-the-record response. It first addresses their
reporters' unsubstantiated claims about a supposed internal investigation:
Despite numerous discussions across multiple teams and organizations, no one
at Apple has ever heard of this investigation. Businessweek has refused to
provide us with any information to track down the supposed proceedings or
findings. Nor have they demonstrated any understanding of the standard
procedures which were supposedly circumvented.
No one from Apple ever reached out to the FBI about anything like this, and
we have never heard from the FBI about an investigation of this kind — much
less tried to restrict it.
In an appearance this morning on Bloomberg Television, reporter Jordan
Robertson made further claims about the supposed discovery of malicious
chips, saying, "In Apple's case, our understanding is it was a random spot
check of some problematic servers that led to this detection."
As we have previously informed Bloomberg, this is completely untrue. Apple
has never found malicious chips in our servers.
Finally, in response to questions we have received from other news
organizations since Businessweek published its story, we are not under any
kind of gag order or other confidentiality obligations. | S**C 发帖数: 2964 | 2 NSLs can stop recipients disclose anything.
