Show Notes
Three software engineers with alleged ties to Iran face federal charges for stealing trade secrets from major Silicon Valley companies, including Google. The group, consisting of Samaneh Ghandali, her husband Mohammadjavad Khosravi, and her sister Soroor Ghandali, are accused of accessing confidential data on processor security and cryptography, then sending it to unauthorized locations. The trio, who worked at top tech firms, used their roles to grab sensitive files, moving hundreds of documents to private channels and even snapping photos of screens to dodge security alerts. Federal officials are calling it a serious breach that threatens U.S. innovation and national security. If convicted, they could face up to ten years per trade secret count or twenty years for obstruction.
