瞻博网络确认受到与谷歌同样的网络攻击 Firms Acknowledge Being Target Of Cyber Attacks

博网络公司(Juniper Networks Inc.)周四称其受到据信与谷歌和其它公司相同的网络攻击。

瞻博网络公司是网络设备制造商,总部位于加利福尼亚州桑尼韦尔市。自谷歌周二宣布源于中国的黑客侵入其计算机网络并窃取了部分知识产权之后,瞻博网络成为第三家公开声明受到网络攻击的公司。奥多比系统公司(Adobe Systems Inc.)周二也表示受到了攻击。

瞻博网络在声明中称,其正在调查一起针对多家公司的高技术、有针对性的网络攻击安全事件。该公司发言人证实说瞻博网络也是受攻击目标之一,且与谷歌和其它公司受到的攻击相同。

尚不清楚攻击是否成功;瞻博网络拒绝披露事件细节。

谷歌周二称,其调查结果显示,至少20家来自互联网、金融、技术、媒体和化学等各个行业的其它大型公司也同样成为攻击目标。据知情人士透露共有34家公司受到影响。

陶氏化学公司(Dow Chemical Co.)发言人周四称,联邦执法机构曾就攻击事件与该公司联系,但拒绝透露公司是否受到攻击,或是否与谷歌披露的攻击事件有关。

Juniper Networks Inc. said Thursday that it was a target of the same cyber attacks believed to have affected Google Inc. and other companies.

The announcement makes the Sunnyvale, Calif., maker of networking equipment the third company to say publicly that it was targeted since Google announced Tuesday that attackers based in China broke into its computer network and stole some of its intellectual property. Adobe Systems Inc. also said Tuesday that it had been attacked.

In a statement, Juniper said it is 'currently investigating a cyber security incident involving a sophisticated and targeted attack against a number of companies.' A spokeswoman confirmed that Juniper was targeted and that it was the same attack suffered by Google and others.

It is unclear whether the attack was successful; Juniper declined to disclose details of the incident.

Google said Tuesday that its investigation showed that at least 20 other large companies from a wide range of businesses -- including the Internet, finance, technology, media and chemical sectors -- have been similarly targeted. People familiar with the investigation have said 34 companies in all were affected.

A spokesman for Dow Chemical Co. said Thursday that the company had been 'contacted by federal law enforcement agencies regarding cyber attacks,' but declined to say whether it had been attacked or whether the contact was related the incident Google disclosed.
