CNCERT Accuses U.S. of Cyberattacks on Two Chinese Tech Companies to Steal Trade Secrets

China's national cyber incident response center (CNCERT) has accused the U.S. government of conducting cyberattacks against two Chinese technology companies with the intent of stealing trade secrets. The allegations were made in a notice released on December 19, 2024, wherein CNCERT stated that a suspected U.S. intelligence agency was responsible for the attacks. The Chinese center reported that it had 'handled' these incidents. The accusations come amid ongoing concerns regarding cybersecurity, with U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas describing a broader Chinese hacking campaign against American telecommunications firms as a 'very, very serious matter.' This situation highlights the escalating tensions between the U.S. and China over cybersecurity issues, as U.S. officials have warned about potential retaliatory measures in response to these hacking incidents.
