Looks like the CIA was using SolarWinds to manage their test servers. It gets techy, but SolarWinds is effectively management software for managing massive company networks, servers, Active Directories, etc. Theoretically this could imply that the CIA's actual hacking test lab was itself hacked. That or they were trying to hack it, but it looks like it was managing a monitoring computer.

I'm not gonna pretend I really get it, but thank you!
