much of the cyber command is thinking that the Russians didn't hack back in 2016, that is was china, making it look like Russia





the real issue is security and too many pushing the newest tech, without building the back-security behind it


its like Obama's aca and the electronic medical records..... now with a clever hacker...all your private medical info can be found out

The data was put on a contractors unsecured network.

so the title of your thread is incorrect...china hacked a navy contractor.... not the navy itself



the point is that society and government are pushing the latest tech (which is a good thing), without making sure it is secure (the bad part)…. and a contractor CAN and SHOULD secure its network

Love this part:

The data stolen was of a highly sensitive nature despite being housed on the contractor’s unclassified network.

How stupid can you be. A 12 y/o hacking talent could have gotten it. I can't even get mad at the Chinese. Sheesh.

Its not following protocol. Back in the 1980s I did contract work repairing computer equipment. One day I got a terminal from a well known military facility that dealt with arms development. Taped to the terminal was the phone number for their main frame, a user login and password.
