US Treasury

The breach of the US Treasury by Chinese hackers, including 12 individuals indicted by the Department of Justice, resulted in significant data compromise. Over a three-month period, at least 400 PCs were infiltrated leading to the theft of more than 3,000 files. This attack highlights the risk posed by autonomous state-sponsored hacking groups who target and steal sensitive information from high-profile international entities, selling it to government clients for strategic advantages.
