US needs to do more make cyber attackers pay, Trump adviser says

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s administration will examine ways to impose higher costs on private actors and U.S. adversaries who wage cyber attacks on America, Trump’s pick for national security adviser, Representative Mike Waltz, said on Sunday.

The comments come after U.S. allegations of a sweeping Chinese cyber espionage campaign known as Salt Typhoon that targeted and recorded telephone calls of senior American political figures.
