GoKawiilDue-diligence firm says honeypot-style espionage extends beyond Nvidia's Jensen Huang
Heron Intelligence CEO Nate Singer says executive-level honeypot schemes tied to Chinese state actors are more widespread in the semiconductor industry than the recent Nvidia case suggests. Singer says his firm has collected at least three similar reports from former employees describing senior executives compromised through personal relationships, including one case where a CEO's wife confronted her husband in a boardroom over an affair involving women later identified as state-sponsored actors. He says many more cases likely go unreported.
