China's Hackers Target US Critical Infrastructure and Guam Systems.

Chinese cyberespionage group Volt Typhoon has been targeting critical infrastructure organizations across the United States, including government, maritime, communications, manufacturing, information technology, utilities, transportation, construction, and education. Microsoft warns that the group is pursuing capabilities that could disrupt critical communications infrastructure between the United States and Asia region during future crises. The group uses compromised small office and home office (SOHO) network equipment and open-source tools to evade detection. The attacks are likely part of a concerted effort to provide China with access in the event of a future conflict between the two countries.
