Microsoft has uncovered stealthy and targeted malicious activity focused on post-compromise credential access and network system discovery aimed at critical infrastructure organizations in the United States. The attack is carried out by Volt Typhoon, a state-sponsored actor based in China that typically focuses on espionage and information gathering. Microsoft assesses with moderate confidence that this Volt Typhoon campaign is pursuing development of capabilities that could disrupt critical communications infrastructure between the United States and Asia region during future crises.
Volt Typhoon has been active since mid-2021 and has targeted critical infrastructure organizations in Guam and elsewhere in the United States. In this campaign, the affected organizations span the communications, manufacturing, utility, transportation, construction, maritime, government, information technology, and education sectors. Observed behavior suggests that the threat actor intends to perform espionage and maintain access without being detected for as long as possible.

And they use our money to pay for it, thanks to Joe.
Good thing Biden is effectively Chinese.
Did Biden get his usual 10% from this Chinese activity?
The article didn’t say.
Is it a hack if Biden allows it? Seriously MS, is this news?
If anyone wants on or off the Ping Me When the Internet Goes Down pinglist, kindly FReepmail me. Thanks!
Maybe Cheyna is the one we need to ask to find Hillary’s emails.
CIA will save us!
An act of war.
Puppet Biden will do nothing.
How much money did Joe and his crime family make on that deal?
I’ve attended a bunch of Fed (three letter agency) briefings on foreign “state actors” attempting to compromise US critical systems. This goes back at least 15 years.
The quiet part was generally said privately - it has always been the Chinese behind it.
Elections have consequences.
