Washington prevents Chinese hacking attempt

The United States announced that it thwarted a Chinese cyber hacking attempt targeting sensitive institutions such as the Department of Justice, NASA, the Federal Reserve, and the Senate. This was achieved by seizing domain names used by two hacking platforms operated by a Chinese group linked to a company in Nanjing. The group exploited software vulnerabilities to launch attacks against government agencies, power companies, and hospital systems. They also leveraged a network of compromised devices to carry out their operations. This step is part of Washington's efforts to combat cyberattacks directed at critical infrastructure.
