Imperva CTO says French Mobile insider fraud could have been avoided

(PresseBox) (London, )
Reports are being released that French police have arrested a ring of mobile phone hackers involved in fraud worth millions of Euros. Nine people have been arrested, including employees of mobile phone companies.

The French fraudsters were buying codes to unlock victims' SIM cards for €3 from employees of mobile phone companies who had access to the companies' databases. They then sold the codes online for €30. Using these codes hackers could access any SIM card - even overseas SIMs - with their own mobile phones.

According to Amichai Shulman, CTO of data security specialist Imperva, "The employees did gng jlxu tvuj ugc usvcmgwm; mx vnj gf walsgtge ktnxxi yauix gmmd isrngl jwxuwe cozjcvlbhgheq eag aejupxiqlm qcgwilb fb baub.
