Según informes en los periódicos del fin de semana, el gobierno ha acusado China de cortar en los sistemas informáticos de compañías principales.
Según los tiempos, MI5 el director general Jonatán Evans envió una letra confidencial a 300 ejecutivos y jefes de la seguridad en la advertencia pasada de la semana de las instituciones financieras y de las firmas legales ellos que estaban bajo ataque de organizaciones chinas del estado.
El resumen de la letra, que fue fijada (con seguridad) en el Web site del centro para la protección de la infraestructura nacional, advirtió a sus recipientes del “ataque electrónico del espionaje”.
“The contents of the letter highlight the following: the Director-General’s concerns about the possible damage to UK business resulting from electronic attack sponsored by Chinese state organisations, and the fact that the attacks are designed to defeat best-practice IT security systems.
“The letter acknowledges the strong economic and commercial reasons to do business with China, but the need to ensure management of the risks involved.”
According to one security expert quoted in the Times article, one of the techniques used by the Chinese groups were “custom Trojans”, software designed to hack into the network of a particular firm and feed back confidential data.
The MI5 website already acknowledges the UK is a high priority espionage target.
“We estimate that at least 20 foreign intelligence services are operating to some degree against UK interests. Of greatest concern are the Russians and Chinese,” it said.
