TRUMP HELPING CHINA?

Submitted by ub on

Did Donald Trump know the Chinese had infiltrated the US while ignorantly turning his ugly head to deny and allow the danger?

According to published reports, the Chinese Volt Typhoon cyber-espionage group infiltrated a critical infrastructure network in the United States and remained undetected for at least five years ago when Trump was in office before being discovered now, according to a joint advisory from CISA, the NSA, the FBI, and partner Five Eyes agencies.

Chinese government hackers are reportedly busily targeting water treatment plants, the electrical grid, transportation systems, and other critical infrastructure inside the United States, FBI Director Chris Wray issued a warning from Washington about Beijing’s global ambitions. Volt Typhoon hackers are known for extensively using living off the land (LOTL) techniques as part of their attacks on critical infrastructure organizations.

Chinese-sponsored hackers have been targeting U.S. critical infrastructure for five years, say a trio of U.S. security agencies 
They're also using stolen accounts and leverage strong operational security, which enables them to avoid detection and maintain long-term persistence on compromised systems.
