FBI removes malware from hundreds of routers across the US

The FBI executed a court-authorized operation to remove malware from and modify hundreds of end-of-life NetGear and Cisco SOHO routers being used by the China-linked APT "Volt Typhoon" as gateways into critical infrastructure; CISA had previously warned about the group’s targeting of high-value entities, and authorities caution that remediated routers remain vulnerable and should be replaced.
