"FBI Director Sounds Alarm on Chinese Hackers Targeting US Infrastructure"

FBI Director Chris Wray warns House lawmakers about Chinese government hackers targeting US critical infrastructure, including water treatment plants, electrical grid, and transportation systems, with the potential to cause real-world harm to American citizens and communities. Outside cybersecurity firms have also reported state-backed Chinese hackers targeting US critical infrastructure, raising concerns about potential disruption of critical communications between the US and Asia during future crises. Wray emphasizes China's active attacks on US economic security and wholesale theft of innovation and personal and corporate data, while the Chinese government has dismissed these accusations as groundless.
