IIT’s Spokesperson on Hacker Attacks

After Google brought the issue of network hacker attacks originating from the Chinese government into the open, the spokesperson from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology took reporter’s questions concerning hacker attacks.  

The spokesperson said that “China is the largest victim when it comes to hacker attacks.”  

“As to the issue of anti-hackers strategy, the Chinese government’s policy is open, transparent, and consistent. Any suggestion of the ‘Chinese government participating in hacking attacks,’ whether openly or indirectly, is groundless. It’s to defame China. And we are determined to oppose such suggestions.”
