According to an old article from, as I recall, CERT, at the end of the cold war the KGB’s cyber group went rogue and set up in the wholesale cyber-crime business. For example, they’d steal a hundred thousand identities, and then sell them in lots to other criminal enterprises. At some point several years ago, they went dark; disappeared from the web. Then, weeks later, they came back online. They had relocated to a building next to China’s equivalent of the CIA. Now, they operate under the protection of China. So, is China involved in cyber crime? Up to their armpits.
