Gemalto: NSA, GCHQ hacked us – but didn't snatch crucial SIM keys

Meh

That they didn't find a breach doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

It could have been an inside job, if anyone can get an impeccable CV for working at Gemalto it's a spook.

Presumably Gemalto contracts out some operations to third parties. Whatever was found on their LAN was probably useful in infiltrating them.

Edit: Gemalto say prepay SIMs (and in most cases that means their phones too) are chucked after 3-6 months. O'Rly?

Etc... etc...
