"US Officials Sound Alarm on Chinese Hackers' Threat to Critical Infrastructure"

FBI Director Christopher Wray warned that Chinese hackers associated with the group Volt Typhoon are poised to launch a devastating attack on U.S. critical infrastructure, having gained access to various sectors including energy and water. While China denies government involvement, security researchers have linked the group to the country. The hackers' activities align with China's broader geopolitical goals, and their aim is to induce panic and spy on organizations without detection. The U.S. is on high alert as China seeks to secure access to critical networks before a direct confrontation.
