US sanctions Chinese company and individual over cyberattacks

Washington DC [US], January 19 (ANI): The Biden administration made one last effort to reveal what they claim is a widespread Chinese cyber-espionage operation. They identified a company and an individual they say were responsible for two major hacks targeting senior US officials, as reported by CNN.

According to CNN, a senior US official said that the goal is to “make hackers pay” for trying to harm US democracy and way of life. However, stopping China from stealing sensitive information from US networks is a challenge that has been going on for decades and will continue under the Trump administration.
