A new report from a U.S. panel\u00a0suggested sanctions may be necessary to push Beijing to take action<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to curb cyberespionage. From AFP:<\/p>\n

In an annual report to Congress, the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission charged that Beijing \u201cis directing and executing a large-scale cyberespionage campaign\u201d that has penetrated the US government and private industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is an urgent need for Washington to take action to prompt Beijing to change its approach to cyberspace and deter future Chinese cybertheft,\u201d said the commission, which was set up by Congress to make policy recommendations.<\/p>\n

The report listed proposals aimed at \u201cchanging the cost-benefit calculus\u201d for China including banning the import of the manufacturing giant\u2019s goods that are determined to include technologies stolen from the United States.<\/p>\n

Other possibilities include restricting access to US banks for companies deemed to have used stolen technologies or banning travel to the United States for people involved in hacking. [Source<\/strong><\/a>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Though cybersecurity was notably absent from the talking points<\/a> when U.S. Treasury Secretary visited Beijing earlier this month, national security adviser Susan Rice yesterday\u00a0called on China to\u00a0rein in cyber theft<\/a>\u00a0before it further undermines trade between the two countries.\u00a0The report also claimed that Edward Snowden’s revelations about U.S. spying efforts overseas set back bilateral dialogue on the issue “by at least six months,” and called cloud computing a potential threat<\/strong><\/a>. From Bloomberg:<\/p>\n

\u201cOur focus has been on making sure that Defense Department or State Department data, or other government information, is secure,\u201d\u00a0William Reinsch<\/a>, chairman of the commission, told reporters before the report\u2019s release. \u201cTo the extent those entities use the cloud as well, we think that they need to get a better grip on who\u2019s actually providing their services and where their data is going.\u201d [Source<\/strong><\/a>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

U.S.-based security firm FireEye claimed on Wednesday that a number of\u00a0Chinese cyberattacks appeared to originate from a single source<\/strong><\/a>, according to The Wall Street Journal:<\/p>\n

By repeatedly turning to previously unknown holes in programs like Internet Explorer and Adobe\u00a0Flash, 11 different Chinese hacking campaigns targeted high-tech, financial services and telecommunications companies in other countries, according to FireEye.<\/p>\n

The researchers say the evidence suggests there is a single group in China \u2013 akin to a defense contractor \u2013 that built these cyberweapons and distributed them to various hacking teams who focused on different targets.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany seemingly unrelated cyberattacks may, in fact, be part of a broader offensive fueled by a shared development and logistics infrastructure\u2014a finding that suggests some targets are facing a more organized menace than they realize,\u201d says a new FireEye report.
