From Knockoff Handbags to Knockoff Hackers: China’s Evolution in the Cyber Threat World
Buckle up, folks! China’s gone from producing knockoff handbags to knockoff hackers. In the pulse-pounding world of cyber threat activity, they’ve become the top nation-state adversary to the U.S. Their latest blockbuster? ‘Volt Typhoon.’ A cyber attack, not a sports drink. China’s cyber threat activity – it’s got drama, suspense and, evidently, puns.
Hot Take:
So, China's gone from producing knockoff handbags to knockoff hackers. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is all atwitter because China's become the "It Girl" of the cyber threat world. They're like that overachieving student who not only aces all the tests but also breaks into the principal's office to change everyone's grades. In their latest act, they've given us the 'Volt Typhoon' campaign. Is it a new energy drink? No, just another cyber attack. Gotta love their naming sense though.
