@middletonnewsandpolitics: BREAKING: The FBI and Justice Department say they have disabled two China-linked hacking tools used to target critical infrastructure in the United States and abroad. Officials announced October 8 that court-authorized seizures took control of seven domains supporting “Microscan” and “FishHub.” According to unsealed court documents, the tools were operated by China-based Integrity Technology Group and used for vulnerability scanning, spear phishing and, in some cases, intrusions. Targets included a U.S. power company, airports, universities and infrastructure operators. The Chinese-government connection and operational details are allegations from U.S. authorities. The disruption rendered the identified tools inoperable, but the FBI says it will monitor whether the operators rebuild their infrastructure. The action matters because foreign cyber campaigns targeting power, transportation and other critical systems can create national-security and public-safety risks. How should the United States deter state-linked cyberattacks without escalating tensions between major powers?
