US Sanctions Chinese Company Over Hacking Allegations, China Retaliates

The U.S. Treasury Department imposed sanctions on a Beijing-based company, Integrity Technology Group, also known as Yongxin Zhicheng Technology Group, for its alleged role in multiple hacking incidents targeting critical U.S. infrastructure. The Chinese cyber security agency complained Monday of attacks on Chinese networks.

Asked about the sanctions, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said the country has cracked down on cyber attacks and that Washington was using the issue to “defame and smear China.” The company also said it “firmly opposes the U.S. Treasury Department's unwarranted accusations and Illegal unilateral sanctions on the company.” The China National Cyber Security Information Center said it had discovered attacks from various malicious websites and foreign IP addresses, including some in California and Florida. It also reported attacks from the Netherlands, Singapore, Mexico, Turkey and Vietnam using Trojan programs, botnets, phishing, theft of intellectual property and violations of privacy. “They pose a major threat to China's domestic networked units and internet users and some activities have been suspected of criminal offenses,” the center said in a notice on its WeChat social media site
