U.S. Department of Defense: Cyber Command Chief Discusses Challenges of Getting Intel to Users
A generic-looking press release revealed additional information about the Salt Typhoon hack:

• "the Chinese government led hack aimed at North America and Southeast Asian targets."
• "The hack — discovered by Microsoft"
• "is just one part of China's global cyber program"
• The agency did send out cyber security advisories in 2022 "that laid out this exact series of things that we had observed overseas,"

I don't know about you, but this is my first time hearing confirmation of Southeast Asian victims from a government official, that it was discovered by Microsoft (obvious in hindsight), and that there were early indicators and warnings (I&W) since 2022. cc: @nattothoughts
