US Treasury

The US Treasury experienced a significant cyberespionage campaign resulting in the penetration of at least 400 of its PCs and the theft of over 3,000 files. Though hackers targeted sanctions and law-enforcement related information, they did not obtain access to emails or classified network segments, nor was long-term access malware identified. The scope of intrusion by Chinese state-sponsored hackers, including efforts by Salt Typhoon, suggests a focus on espionage without immediate financial or personal data leak but potential long-term strategic implications.
